• The "big roundworm" that infects people, Ascaris lumbricoides, can reach a length of 35 cm (14 in).
• It belongs to one of the several Ascaris species. It is the most prevalent parasitic worm in humans and is an ascarid nematode belonging to the phylum Nematoda. Ascariasis, a kind of helminthiasis and one of the neglected tropical illnesses, is caused by this organism.
• A. lumbricoides or another roundworm infects an estimated 1/6 of the human population. Especially in tropical and subtropical nations, ascariasis is a common disease.
