Many nematode species occur in the equine gastrointestinal tract, although not all are of equal importance:

!'''Stomach'''
!'''Small Intestine'''
!'''Large Intestine'''
|-

*''Habronema (Draschia)''
*''Trichostrongylus axei''

*''Parascaris''
*''Strongyloides''

*''Strongylus'' species
*Cyathostomins
*''Triodontophorus'' species
*''Oxyuris equi''

== Strongyles (Red worms) ==
The strongyles that occur in the horse can be divided on the basis of size into two groups
*'''Large''' strongyles
**''Strongylus'' species (3 species; used to be widespread prior to the introduction of worm control programmes; now uncommon)
**''Triodontophorus'' species (common)
*'''Small''' strongyles
**Also known as Cyathostomins (preferred term), cyathostomes, trichonemes or small redworms
**Cyathostomins (widespread, including 4 genera and over 40 species of worms)
