Ascaris lumbricoides
Ascaris lumbricoides is a large parasitic worm that causes ascariasis in humans. A roundworm of genus Ascaris, it is the most common parasitic worm in humans. An estimated one-sixth of the human population is at some point infected by a roundworm such as A. lumbricoides; people living in tropical and subtropical countries are at greater risk of infection.
It has been proposed that Ascaris lumbricoides and Ascaris suum (pig roundworm) are the same species.
