Description
This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article André K, Henri M. (2025): Sixty years after “ A review of the genera of the family Tydeidae ” (Acariformes: Tydeoidea: Tydeidae). Acarologia 65 (1): 149-172, DOI: 10.24349/l5vb-767l, URL: doi.org/10.24349/l5vb-767l ABSTRACT The goal of this paper is to present an overview of the genera of the prostigmatic mite family Tydeidae 60 years after the appearance of E.W. Baker’s seminal paper on the family (1965), and to define in systematic and scientific terms the genera within the superfamily Tydeoidea.
Cumulative curves are given for genera, species and names. The number of morphospecies is estimated to be around 11,600 of which 3.72% have been described. Evolutionary plasticity and a new concept of the family are explored.

The revised family is considered here to contain 31 genera and 3 non-nominal subgenera. Nomenclatural changes are noted in families, genera, subgenera and species: Bakerlasiotydaeus n. gen. (moved to Iolinidae, Tydaeolinae); Neoafrotydeus n. gen.
(Tydeidae); Neohomeotydeus n. gen. (replaces Homeotydeus not in accordance with ICZN); Afrotydeus, junior synonym of Tydeus (n. syn.); Paralorryia, junior synonym of Calotydeus (n. syn.); Pertydeus, subgenus of Tydeus (rest. comb.); Quadrotydeus, subgenus of Brachytydeus (rest. comb.), Eotydeus, subgenus of Brachytydeus (n. comb.), Bakerlasiotydaeus. krantzi n. comb. (Iolinidae); Tydeus nieukerkeni (justified emendation) and Homeotydeus formosus (gender agreement).
A table allowing the identification of female tydeid genera and subgenera is presented.
