An externally toothed gear of a dual-type strain wave gearing is provided with first and second external teeth having different teeth numbers, and is flexed into an ellipsoidal shape by a wave generator. When t(1) represents the tooth bottom rim wall thickness of the first external teeth, and t(2) represents the tooth bottom rim wall thickness of the second external teeth, the ratio of t(1)/t(2) is set to a value satisfying 0.5>t(1)/t(2)
