Gnathostoma

Gnathostoma is a genus of parasitic nematodes.

Neurognathostomiasis occurs in the USA.

[2] Gnathostoma binucleatum (which is native to the Americas) has not been previously reported to cause neurognathostomiasis, suggesting that G. spinigerum has been introduced to the Americas, but a survey of isolates has not confirmed this.
