\"The available information of the two saturniid species recorded from the south-western region of the Arabian Peninsula is summarised and updated. Campimoptilum arabicum (Rougeot, 1977) comb. n. is transferred from the genus Goodia Holland, 1893 to Campimoptilum Karsch, 1896, and Usta arabica sp. n. is described as new and differentiated from its most similar species, U. angulata Rothschild, 1895. The classification of the Saturniidae is reconciled with recent advances made in the phylogeny of the family, Bunaeinae are recognised as a subfamily and brief notes on the composition of the tribes Micragonini and Urotini are given. Comments are provided on the recent subdivision of the genus Goodia, and Yatanga Darge, 2008 syn. n. is synonymised with Campimoptilum, Yatanga sicca Darge, 2011 syn. n. with C. smithii (Holland, 1897) and Yatanga sudanica Darge, 2011 syn. n. and Y. tandala Darge, 2011 syn. n. with C. oriens (Hampson, 1909).\"
