Potamodrilidae is a family of meiofaunal annelids, monotypically containing only the genus Potamodrilus.[1][2]
Potamodrialidae is the sister group to Aeolosomatidae, by all accounts.[3] Beyond that, its phylogenetic position is uncertain.[citation needed]
The species of this genus are found in Europe.[1]
Species:[1]
- Potamodrilus fluviatilus (Lastockin, 1935)
- Potamodrilus rivularis Lastočkin, 1935
