Biology:Enoplida
From HandWiki
Enoplida is an order of nematodes. It is one of two orders in Enoplia, which is one of two subclasses in Class Enoplea.[1][2]
These nematodes are mostly free-living marine animals.[3] Most feed on diatoms and other algaes.[1]
Subdivisions
Upon phylogenetic analysis in 2010, the order was divided into five clades. Clades and selected families include:[3]
- Clade I
- Family Rhabdolaimidae
- Clade II
- Clade III
- Family Tripyloididae
- Family Trefusiidae
- Clade IV
- Family Oxystominidae
- Family Oncholaimidae
- Family Enchelidiidae
- Clade V
- Family Thoracostomopsidae
- Family Enoplidae
- Family Phanodermatidae
- Family Leptosomatidae
The World Register of Marine Species shows the following suborders within Enoplida:[4]
- Alaimina
- Campydorina
- Dioctophymina
- Enoplina
- Ironina
- Oncholaimina
- Trefusiina
- Trichinellina
- Tripyloidina
