Name

Tydaeolinae André, 1979

• Original status: valid subfamily proposed by André (1979: 202)

Notes

• The superfamily Iolinoidea erected by Pritchard (1956) was lowered in hierarchic rank and included in the Tydeoidea by Krantz (1978: 237).
• The Iolinidae were redefined by André (1984) and expanded by André & Fain (2000) to include the subfamilies Tydaeolinae and Pronematinae, which previously belonged to the family Tydeidae.
