Free-living marine nematodes are important and abundant members of the meiobenthos. They play an important role in the decomposition process, aid in recycling of nutrients in marine environments, and are sensitive to changes in the environment caused by pollution.
Anisakis (/ æ n ə ˈ s ɑː k iː z / a-nə-SAH-keez) is a genus of parasitic nematodes that have life cycles involving fish and marine mammals. [1] They are infective to humans and cause anisakiasis.

Vertical distribution of an intertidal nematodes (Nematoda) and harpacticoid copepods (Copepoda:Harpacticoida) in muddy and sandy bottom of intertidal zone at Lok Kawi Sabah, Malaysia.
Anisakis simplex, known as the herring worm, is a species of nematode in the genus Anisakis. Like other nematodes, it infects and settles in the organs of marine animals, such as salmon, mackerels and squids. [2] [3] It is commonly found in cold marine waters, such as the Pacific Ocean and Atlantic Ocean. [4] [5]
Stilbonematines are found in the meiofaunal habitat in marine environments. [2] Another group of meiofaunal nematodes with sulfur-oxidizing symbionts is the genus Astomonema, although in Astomonema the bacteria are endo- rather than ectosymbionts.
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]
The marine tapeworm Polygonoporus giganticus, found in the gut of sperm whales, can grow to over 30 m (100 ft). [44] [45] Nematodes (roundworms) constitute a further worm phylum with tubular digestive systems and an opening at both ends. [46] [47] Over 25,000 nematode species have been described, [48] [49] of which more
