The Asian pseudoscorpion genus Tullgrenius Chamberlin, 1933 is revised. A neotype is designated for Tullgrenius indicus Chamberlin, 1933, based on topotype material and a detailed description of its male is provided. Two new synonymies are proposed: Tullgrenius vachoni Murthy, 1962 syn. nov. and Tullgrenius orientalis Sivaraman, 1980 syn. nov. = T. indicus.
