Rhabditida

Caenorhabditis elegans
Scientific classification
Kingdom:	Animalia
Phylum:	Nematoda
Class:	Chromadorea
Superorder:	Rhabditida Chitwood, 1933
Superfamilies
Bunonematoidea Cephaloboidea Drilonematoidea Myolaimoidea Panagrolaimoidea Rhabditidae Strongylida Teratocephaloidea

The Rhabditida are an order of free-living, zooparasitic and phytoparasitic microbivorous nematodes (roundworms) living in soil.

The Oxyuridae used to be included here, but they rather seem to belong in the Spiruria. 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]

Genera include:

Bursilla (including Mesorhabditis)
Caenorhabditis - containing several species with sequenced genomes (most notably C. elegans and C. briggsae)
Cruznema
Heterorhabditis
Panagrellus which includes the microworm
Pelodera
Rhabditis
Steinernema
Strongyloides
