'''''Anthyllis''''' is a genus of plants in the family [[Fabaceae]]. This genus contains both [[herb]]aceous and [[shrub]]by species and is distributed in [[Europe]], the [[Middle East]] and North [[Africa]]. The most widespread and familiar species is [[Kidney Vetch]] (''A. vulneraria'') which is a familiar [[grassland]] flower throughout the region and has also been introduced to [[New Zealand]].
''Anthyllis'' species are used as food plants by the [[larva]]e of some [[Lepidoptera]] species including the following case-bearers of the genus ''[[Coleophora]]'': ''C. acanthyllidis'', ''C. protecta'' (both feed exclusively on ''A. tragacanthoides''), ''C. hermanniella'' (feeds exclusively on ''A. hermanniae''), ''C. vestalella'' (feeds exclusively on ''A. cytisoides'') and ''C. vulnerariae'' (feeds exclusively on ''A. vulneraria'').

Species include:
*''A. aegaea''
