The only known species, the type ''Tototlmimus packardensis'' was named and described in 2015 by Claudia Ines Serrano Brañas, Esperanza Torres-Rodriguez Paola Carolina Reyes-moon, Ixchel Gonzalez-Gonzalez Ramirez and Carlos Leon. The genus name is derived from the Nahuatl word ''tototl'', "bird" and the ancient Greek ''mimus'', mimic. The species name refers to its origin from the Packard Shale Formation.〔
The fossil specimen, the holotype ERNO 8553, was found in the northeastern Mexican state of Sonora, in the Cabullona Group, in an bed of the Packard Shale which may date from the late Campanian, 72 million years ago.
