Though none of the families placed here are overly diverse, they are quite large except for the monotypic Hedruridae. Consequently, the Habronematoidea are at present the second-largest superfamily of Spirurida, after the Filarioidea which contains the massively speciose Onchocercidae.
The families of the Habronematoidea are:
- Cystidicolidae
- Habronematidae
- Hedruridae
- Tetrameridae
