Type species: Hadrodenus megacondylus Mulvey, 1969

Mulvey (1969) erected the genus Hadrodenus for species of Neotylenchidae that are similar to Deladenus Thorne, 1941 but with a more anterior vulva and a postuterine sac. Besides describing the type species he transferred Deladenus saccatus Andrassy, 1964 to the genus.
