Pertydeus André & Naudo, 1965

Pertydeus was erected by André & Naudo (1965) as subgenus of Tydeus. The subgenus accommodated two species: Tydeus schusteri and Tydeus tridactylus.
The subgenus was used but disputed by Baker (1970: 164).
The subgenus was not treated by subsequent authors: André (1980), Kaźmierski (1998) and Silva et al. (2016) and no formal synonymy was proposed.
The component species are now assigned to the genus Brachytydeus by Silva et al. (2016) (except recidivus not listed).
