The name Crocinitomix means saffron-coloured thread, derived from the Latin adjective crocinus, of or pertaining to saffron and tomix, a string or thread. [4]

Its name derives from the Neo-Latin catalasum, meaning catalase, and Latin -tica, a suffix used in adjectives with the sense of relating to, pertaining to the ability of this species to produce catalase.
