Extract

The family Filaroididae Schulz, 1951 is defined and reclassified into five subfamilies, viz.: Filaroidinae Skrjabin, 1933; Angiostrongylinae Bohm and Gebauer, 1934; Vogeloidinae Dougherty, 1951; Oslerinae Khera, 1954; and Marsupostrongylinae subfam. nov. Definitions of the last two sub-families are given and the familial relationships of the Filaroididae are discussed. All species in the Filaroididae are listed and a key is given to its sub-families and genera.
