Résumé :	A new species of Cryptolepis from Yemen, Arabian Peninsula, C. yemenensis is described and figured. It is recognized by the glabrous appearance of the plant, oblong-elliptic to narrowly obovate leaves, small flowers, small follicles and ridged seed. The new species resembles Cryptolepis gillettii Hutch. & E.A. Bruce and C. volubilis (Balf f.) Schwartz to some extent. Their flowers are die, except for size and different corona shapes. However, they differ with regard to the shape and size of the follicles, the texture of the seed coat and the absence or presence of vesture on the plants.
