Nematode
The nematodes ( or ; ; ), roundworms or eelworms constitute the phylum Nematoda. Species in the phylum inhabit a broad range of environments. Most species are free-living, feeding on microorganisms, but many are parasitic. Parasitic worms (helminths) are the cause of soil-transmitted helminthiases. They are classified along with arthropods, tardigrades and other moulting animals in the clade Ecdysozoa. Unlike the flatworms, nematodes have a tubular digestive system, 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 are uncertain. A 2013 survey of animal biodiversity suggested there are over 25,000. Estimates of the total number of extant species are su ...

Cosmopolitan Distribution
In biogeography, a cosmopolitan distribution is the range of a taxon that extends across most or all of the surface of the Earth, in appropriate habitats; most cosmopolitan species are known to be highly adaptable to a range of climatic and environmental conditions, though this is not always so. Killer whales ( orcas) are among the most well-known cosmopolitan species on the planet, as they maintain several different resident and transient (migratory) populations in every major oceanic body on Earth, from the Arctic Circle to Antarctica and every coastal and open-water region in-between. Such a taxon (usually a species) is said to have a ''cosmopolitan'' distribution, or exhibit cosmopolitanism, as a species; another example, the rock dove (commonly referred to as a ' pigeon'), in addition to having been bred domestically for centuries, now occurs in most urban areas around the world. The extreme opposite of a cosmopolitan species is an endemic (native) species, or one foun ...

Filaria Martis
''Filaria martis'' is a parasitic species of roundworm belonging to the genus '' Filaria'', of which it is the type species. It is known to parasitize the subcutaneous tissues of mustelids (though the African leopard is also a recorded host), causing the disease filariasis. Taxonomy The species ''Filaria martis'' was first scientifically described by German naturalist Johann Friedrich Gmelin in 1790 based on specimens collected from inside a European pine marten, and has been mentioned in a 1787 publication by Otto Friedrich Müller in which the genus '' Filaria'' is erected. Both Gmelin and Müller refer to figure 1 of plate 9 in a 1708 publication by Francesco Redi when describing this species. However, this figure actually depicts a different species known as '' Ascaris renalis'', and the two authors likely made a writing mistake, intending to refer to figure 3 of the same plate. Over a century after it was first described, ''Filaria martis'' was fixed as the type species of ...
