The nematodes (/ ˈ n ɛ m ə t oʊ d z / NEM-ə-tohdz or NEEM-; Ancient Greek: Νηματώδη; Latin: Nematoda), 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.

Rhabditida is an order of free-living, parasitic and microbivorous nematodes living in soil. The Cephalobidae, Panagrolaimidae, Steinernematidae, and Strongyloididae seem to be closer to the Tylenchia, regardless of whether these are merged with the Rhabditia or not. [1]
Plectida is an order of nematodes belonging to the class Chromadorea. [1] Families: [1] Aegialoalaimidae Lorenzen, 1981; Camacolaimidae De Coninck & Schuurmans Stekhoven, 1933; Chronogastridae Gagarin, 1975; Haliplectidae Chitwood, 1951; Metateratocephalidae Eroshenko, 1973; Peresianidae Vitiello & De Coninck, 1968; Plectidae Örley, 1880
Subclass Rhabditia is mostly composed of parasitic nematodes (particularly in the Strongylida), though there are some free-living species as well (particularly in the Rhabditida). Phasmids (posterior sensory structures) are well-developed, while amphids (anterior sensory structures) are poorly developed or absent in this group.
The Chromadorea are a class of the roundworm phylum, Nematoda.They contain a single subclass (Chromadoria) and several orders.With such a redundant arrangement, the Chromadoria are liable to be divided if the orders are found to form several clades, or abandoned if they are found to constitute a single radiation.
