Hexametra Boddaertii
''Hexametra boddaertii'' is a parasitic roundworm belonging to the family Ascarididae. ''H. boddaertii'' was originally described from a single specimen of ''Mastigodryas boddaerti'', a South American colubrine snake. Other neotropical colubrids identified as hosts to ''H. boddaertii'' include '' Oxyrhopus trigeminus'', '' Philodryas patagoniensis'', '' Spilotes pullatus'', ''Trimorphodon biscutatus'', '' Philodryas baroni'', and ''Oxyrhopus guibei ''Oxyrhopus guibei'' is a species of snake in the family Colubridae. The species is endemic to South America. It is often called the false coral snake, Braz H, Manço DD (2011)"Natural nests of the false-coral snake ''Oxyrhopus guibei'' in sout ...''. It is thought that ''Hexametra'' may be the causative agent of ocular disease, diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis, (DSUN), in Brazil.Souza et al., 2007 V.L. Souza, A.P. Santos T.M. d.

Ascarididae
The Ascarididae are a family of the large intestinal roundworms. Members of the family are intestinal parasites, infecting all classes of vertebrates. It includes a number of genera,Anderson RC (2000)''Nematode Parasites of Vertebrates.

Nematodes
The nematodes ( or grc-gre, Νηματώδη; la, Nematoda) or roundworms constitute the phylum Nematoda (also called Nemathelminthes), with plant-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 arthropods, tardigrades and other moulting animals in the clade Ecdysozoa, and unlike flatworms, have tubular 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 time.

Cosmopolitan Distribution
In biogeography, cosmopolitan distribution is the term for the range of a taxon that extends across all or most of the world in appropriate habitats. Such a taxon, usually a species, is said to exhibit cosmopolitanism or cosmopolitism. The extreme opposite of a cosmopolitan species is an endemic one, being found only in a single geographical location. Qualification The caveat “in appropriate habitat” is used to qualify the term "cosmopolitan distribution", excluding in most instances polar regions, extreme altitudes, oceans, deserts, or small, isolated islands. For example, the housefly is highly cosmopolitan, yet is neither oceanic nor polar in its distribution. Related terms and concepts The term pandemism also is in use, but not all authors are consistent in the sense in which they use the term; some speak of pandemism mainly in referring to diseases and pandemics, and some as a term intermediate between endemism and cosmopolitanism, in effect regarding pandemism as ...
