Oxyuris (nematode) → Oxyuris – Oxyuris currently redirects to Pinworm (parasite). That was probably done because the human pinworm was originally placed in this genus, but I don't think that makes the human pinworm the primary topic. jlwoodwa (talk) 20:04, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Support per nom. Term not mentioned at current redirect target (except in hatnote), so no reason why the current genus shouldn't occupy the base name. Mdewman6 (talk) 23:37, 25 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
