The species of Anthelephila Hope, 1833 of Yemen are reviewed. Three species are newly described: Anthelephila kadleci sp. nov. and A. praefecta sp. nov. from continental Yemen, and A. pilitarsis sp. nov. from Socotra Island. A new synonymy, Anthelephila anceyi rathjensi (Pic, 1957) = Formicomus panelii Hille, 1977, syn. nov., is proposed. New records of eight species of Anthelephila from Yemen are given and a key to species is provided.
