Oxyurida
Oxyurida is an order of nematode worms of the class Secernentea. It consists of four families, one of which contains the human pinworm (''Enterobius vermicularis''). Species Notable species include: * ''Enterobius vermicularis'', the human pinworm * '' Gyrinicola batrachiensis'', a parasite or mutualist of amphibian tadpoles * ''Syphacia oryzomyos'', a parasite of the marsh rice rat (''Oryzomys palustris'') * '' Skrjabinema ovis'', a parasite of ruminant Ruminants (suborder Ruminantia) are hoofed herbivorous grazing or browsing mammals that are able to acquire nutrients from plant-based food by fermenting it in a specialized stomach prior to digestion, principally through microbial actions.

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.
