For academics in biological sciences, rather than for farmers or doctors battling parasites, reviews the morphology and development of nematode worms, emphasizing the free-living, less known marine species. Malakhov (invertebrate zoology, Moscow State U.) also proposes a classification and phylogeny based on histology, ultrastructure, embryogeny, and ontogeny. First published in 1986 in Russian.
