Metanemes absent. Outer labial setae and cephalic setae arranged in one circle. Amphideal fovea non-spiral, pocket- or club-shaped. Buccal cavity usually cuticularized; funnel-shaped pharyngostoma, sometimes with small teeth, cheilostoma cylindrical, shallow or deep. Secretory-excretory system either restricted to pharyngeal region or extends further posteriorly. Female reproductive system monodelphic with anterior reflexed ovary to the left of the intestine; vulva located very close to anus ( Lauratonemoides ) or ending in the cloaca ( Lauratonema and Lauratonemella ). Male reproductive system monorchic or diorchic, posterior testis always to the right of the intestine; precloacal supplements absent. Spicules short, straight or only slightly bent; gubernaculum present or absent. Caudal glands lie completely within the tail. Tail conical or conicocylindrical. Type genus Lauratonema Gerlach, 1953 . Remarks Lorenzen (1981) states that this family is characterised by a monorchic male reproductive system; however, more recent species descriptions ( Tchesunov 1984 ; Fadeeva 1989 ; Chen & Guo 2015 ) show the presence of two opposed testes in some Lauratonema , Lauratonemoides , and Lauratonemella species. The family was revised by Tchesunov (1984) , who provided a key to species of the family.
