Isolaimiida

Isolaimiina

Isolaimioidea

Aulolaimidae De Man, 1880 (see Isolaimiidae)

Per Abolafia and Pena-Santiago, 2018, the Aulolaimidae and its genera are are transferred to the order Isolaimida (sometimes used as Isolaimiidae):

• There is a close relationship of Aulolaimus and Isolaimium in the order Isoaimiida. That order was shown with morphological and molecular analyses to be separate from other nematode orders.
• Consequently, the order Isolaimiida is considered valid and Aulolaimus and other genera belonging to the family Aulolaimidae are transferred to the Isolaimiida (Abolafia and Pena-Santiago, 2018).
