Ambach et al. (1992) invoked the name Homo tirolensis in a brief description about the find and indicate that the name is given provisionally. Lubec et al. (1994) also invoke the name in their report on aminio acid racimation dating of the specimen. They too indicate the name is provisional. Given the provisional designation and the lack of description or a differential diagnosis in either publication the name is conditionally proposed and nomen nudem and thus unavailable. Furthermore, the nomen is a junior primary homonym to Homo alpinus tirolensis Frizzi, 1909.
