Trichuridae
The roundworm family Trichuridae includes the type genus ''Trichuris'' and some less widely known members. They are (after the abolishment of the artificial "Adenophorea" assemblage) placed in subclass Dorylaimia of the class Enoplea; however, the former might be better treated as a class in its own right. That nonwithstanding, their order (Trichocephalida) has been known under alternate names in the past, namely Trichiurida. The genus ''Trichuris'' is particularly well known for being a common parasite of domestic animals and less usually humans. Its common name "whipworm" refers to the shape of these worms; they look like whips with wider "handles" at the posterior end. The genera of Trichuridae are:Hallan (2007) * '' Capillostrongyloides'' Freitas & Lent, 1935 * '' Liniscus'' * '' Orthothominx'' Teixeira de Freitas & Jorge da Silva, 1960 * '' Pearsonema'' Teixeira de Freitas & Machado de Mendonça, 1960 * '' Sclerotrichum'' Rudolphi, 1819 * '' Tenoranema'' Mas-Coma & Esteban, ...

Trichuris
''Trichuris'', often referred to as whipworms (which typically refers to ''T. trichiura'' only in medicine, and to any other species in veterinary medicine), is a genus of parasitic worms from the roundworm family Trichuridae, which are helminths. The name whipworm refers to the shape of the worm; they look like whips with wider "handles" at the posterior end. The name ''Trichocephalus'' is sometimes used for this genus. Species The genus ''Trichuris'' includes over 20 species, which infect the large intestine of their host, including: * ''Trichuris trichiura'' (sometimes ''Trichocephalus trichiurus'') – causes trichuriasis in humans * ''Trichuris campanula'' (cat whipworm) * '' Trichuris serrata'' (cat whipworm) * ''Trichuris suis'' (pig whipworm) * ''Trichuris muris'' (mouse whipworm) * ''Trichuris vulpis'' (dog whipworm) A new species – as yet unnamed – has been identified in François’ leaf monkey ('' Trachypithecus francoisi''). Other species in this genus includ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
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.

Genera
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus '' Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. phylogenetic analysis should clearly demons ...

Human
Humans (''Homo sapiens'') are the most abundant and widespread species of primate, characterized by bipedalism and exceptional cognitive skills due to a large and complex brain. This has enabled the development of advanced tools, culture, and language. Humans are highly social and tend to live in complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families and kinship networks to political states. Social interactions between humans have established a wide variety of values, social norms, and rituals, which bolster human society. Its intelligence and its desire to understand and influence the environment and to explain and manipulate phenomena have motivated humanity's development of science, philosophy, mythology, religion, and other fields of study. Although some scientists equate the term ''humans'' with all members of the genus ''Homo'', in common usage, it generally refers to ''Homo sapiens'', the only extant member. Anatomically moder ...

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 ...

Domestic Animal
This page gives a list of domesticated animals, also including a list of animals which are or may be currently undergoing the process of domestication and animals that have an extensive relationship with humans beyond simple predation. This includes species which are semi-domesticated, undomesticated but captive-bred on a commercial scale, or commonly wild-caught, at least occasionally captive-bred, and tameable. In order to be considered fully domesticated, most species have undergone significant genetic, behavioural and morphological changes from their wild ancestors, while others have changed very little from their wild ancestors despite hundreds or thousands of years of potential selective breeding. A number of factors determine how quickly any changes may occur in a species, but there is not always a desire to improve a species from its wild form. Domestication is a gradual process, so there is no precise moment in the history of a given species when it can be considered t ...
