Diplolaimelloides is a genus of free-living nematodes within the family Monhysteridae.[1] The microscopic roundworms were first classified by A.H. Meyl in 1954 and are primarily found in aquatic environments of varying salinity, such as intertidal zones, brackish waters, salt lakes, and mangrove swamps. They play a role in benthic ecosystems as consumers of bacteria and organic particles.[2]
