• Neotype designated by André (2005: 996) - RMNH,♀

Synonyms

Objective synonyms

• Acarus croceus, original combination
• Tydeus croceus, subsequent combination advanced by Oudemans (1928) and used by Kaźmierski (1998: 357) and Silva et al. (2016) who does not list Calotydeus
• Calotydeus croceus, subsequent combination used by Oudemans (1937)

Subjective synonyms

• Tydeus foliorum, senior synonym according to Berlese (1882-1893: 25), combination used by Oudemans (1914: plate XII) for a specimen collected from a mole’s nest

Notes

• Oudemans’ publications require a thorough analysis as he referred to three species under the name croceus and changed his interpretation of Linnaeus’ species. For further information, please refer to André (2005). This Tydeus croceus has no "spatulate" setae, for a redescription based on Oudemans' collection, see also André (2005: 988-990)
• Type species of the genus Calotydeus designated by Oudemans (1937: 922), designation repeated by André (2005: 976, 995).
• Listed as "ancient species" by Kaźmierski (1998: 357)
