Aonchotheca
''Aonchotheca'' is a genus of nematodes belonging to the family Capillariidae. The genus was first described by López-Neyra in 1947. The species of this genus are found in Eurasia and Northern America. Species include: * ''Aonchotheca forresteri ''Aonchotheca forresteri'' is a parasitic nematode that infects the marsh rice rat (''Oryzomys palustris'') in Florida.

Aonchotheca Forresteri
''Aonchotheca forresteri'' is a parasitic nematode that infects the marsh rice rat (''Oryzomys palustris'') in Florida. Occurring mainly in adults, it inhabits the stomach. It is much more common during the wet season, perhaps because its unknown intermediate host is an earthworm that only emerges when it rains. The worm was discovered in 1970 and formally described in 1987. Originally classified in the genus ''Capillaria'', it was reclassified in '' Aonchotheca'' in 1999. ''A. forresteri'' is small and narrow-bodied, with a length of 13.8 to 19.4 mm in females and 6.8 to 9.2 mm in males. Similar species such as '' A. putorii'' differ in features of the alae and spicule (organs in the male), the size of the female, and the texture of the eggs. Taxonomy ''Aonchotheca forresteri'' was discovered during a survey of the endoparasites of Florida marsh rice rats (''Oryzomys palustris'') by John Kinsella from 1970 to 1972,Forrester, 1992, p. 100 and is one of s ...

Capillariidae
''Capillariidae'' is a family of parasitic nematodes. All its members are parasites in vertebrates when they are in their adult stage. Taxonomy The family Capillariidae was created by Railliet in 1915. It is accepted in the most recent classifications of the Nematoda,Hodda, M. 2011: Phylum Nematoda Cobb 1932. ''In'': Zhang, Z.-Q. (ed.) 2011: Animal biodiversity: an outline of higher-level classification and survey of taxonomic richness. ''Zootaxa'', 3148: 63–95. (paperback) (online editionPDF/ref> in which it is one of the members of the order Trichocephalida. However, ''Capillaria'' and closely related genera are sometimes included in the family Trichinellidae in other classifications. The taxonomy of the Capillariidae is disputed: according to different classifications, the family includes the single genus ''Capillaria'' or 22 different genera ('' Amphibiocapillaria, Aonchotheca, Baruscapillaria, Calodium, Capillaria, Capillostrongyloides, Crocodylocapillaria, Echino ...

Nematode
The nematodes ( or grc-gre, Νηματώδη; la, Nematoda) or roundworms constitute the phylum Nematoda (also called Nemathelminthes), with plant-Parasitism, parasitic nematodes also known as eelworms. They are a diverse animal phylum inhabiting a broad range of environments. Less formally, they are categorized as Helminths, but are taxonomically classified along with Arthropod, arthropods, Tardigrade, tardigrades and other moulting animalia, animals in the clade Ecdysozoa, and unlike platyhelminthe, flatworms, have tubular digestion, digestive systems with openings at both ends. Like tardigrades, they have a reduced number of Hox genes, but their sister phylum Nematomorpha has kept the ancestral protostome Hox genotype, which shows that the reduction has occurred within the nematode phylum. Nematode species can be difficult to distinguish from one another. Consequently, estimates of the number of nematode species described to date vary by author and may change rapidly over ...

Trichocephalida
The Trichocephalida (Trichinellida or Trichurida in other classifications) is an order of parasitic nematodes. Taxonomy The order Trichocephalida includes, according to modern classifications, the single suborder Trichinellina Hodda, 2007, which itself includes the single superfamily Trichinelloidea Ward, 1907, which itself includes 6 families: * Family Anatrichosomatidae Yamaguti, 1961 (1 genus, 5 species) including the single genus '' Anatrichosoma'' * Family Capillariidae Railliet, 1915 Railliet, A. 1915: L'emploi des médicaments dans le traitement des maladies causées par des Nématodes.
