NOTE: the Trichostrongyloidea, Strongyloidea and hookworms are very closely related, and are often collectively known as '''"the strongyles"'''. Typically, they produce almost identical eggs, called '''"typical strongyle eggs"'''.

From the veterinary view-point, the nematodes are most conveniently grouped into '''superfamilies''' because their members often have similar life-cycles and epidemiological features. Superfamily names end in -oidea (the anglicised form is -oid, as in trichostrongyloid).
