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
  • Clade II
    • Family Alaimidae
    • Family Ironidae
  • 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
