Three new species of Rhinophoridae (<i>Aporeomyia elaphocera</i><b>sp. nov.</b>, <i>Baniassa pennata</i><b>sp. nov.</b> from the Oriental Region, and <i>Phyto mambilla</i><b>sp. nov.</b> from the Afrotropical Region) are described, illustrated and compared with congeners. Genus-level affiliation of the new species is based on a morphology-based phylogeny, preliminarily accepting a paraphyletic <i>Phyto</i> Robineau-Desvoidy awaiting incorporation of molecular data. Keys to the species of the genus <i>Aporeomyia</i> Pape & Shima as well as to the Afrotropical species of the genus <i>Phyto</i> Robineau-Desvoidy are given.
