Titanolabis is a genus of earwigs in the subfamily Anisolabidinae (though formerly in its own subfamily).[1] It was cited by Srivastava in Part 2 of Fauna of India.[2] Among its species is the Australian T. colossea, which at about 5 cm (2.0 in) long is the largest certainly living species of earwig (the even larger Saint Helena earwig, Labidura herculeana, is generally considered extinct).[3]
Species

The genus includes the following species:[4]

Titanolabis bormansi Srivastava, 1983
Titanolabis centaurea Steinmann, 1985
Titanolabis colossea (Dohrn, 1864)
