Anthelephila maindroni(Pic, 1903) is redescribed and A. maindroni strigosa (Heberdey, 1934) is elevated to the species level. Four species are newly described from India: Anthelephila feminea sp. nov. (Maharashtra, Karnataka), A. nandi sp. nov. (Karnataka), A. sahyadrica sp. nov. (Tamil Nadu), and A. semistrigosa sp. nov. (Tamil Nadu). A new synonymy, Anthelephila maindroni (Pic, 1903) = Formicomus argutus Krekich-Strassoldo, 1928, syn. nov., is proposed. A lectotype is designated for Formicomus maindroni strigosus Heberdey, 1934.
