All Latitude Lines are parallel to the equator. If you're looking at a flat map, they will be horizontal lines, but depending on the type of map, they may be drawn to curve 'up' in the Northern Hemisphere & curve 'down' in the Southern Hemisphere. On a globe, they will be circles running East-West around the globe.
Some specific named latitudes are Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn, Arctic Circle, Antarctic Circle.
