Other examples of nematodes (roundworms) besides pinworms and groundworms include Ascaris lumbricoides, which causes ascariasis, and Strongyloides stercoralis, responsible for strongyloidiasis. Additionally, the filarial worms, such as Wuchereria bancrofti, can lead to lymphatic filariasis. Other notable nematodes include the hookworms, such as Ancylostoma duodenale and Necator americanus, which can cause anemia and malnutrition.
