Name

• Type locality: collected from a mole’s nest

Synonyms

• Tydeus caudatus, senior synonym according to Thor (1931) and to Baker (1970: 173)

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 "spatulate" setae.
