Wuchereria bancrofti and Wuchereria malayi are types of filarial worms that can cause a condition known as elephantiasis or filariasis. These worms live in the lymphatic vessels of the lower limbs, as well as in the genital organs, leading to chronic inflammation and damage over many years.

The fungi belonging to the genera Trichophyton, Microsporum, and Epidermophyton cause an infection called ringworm. Dry scaly lesions are a common symptom of this fungal infection.

Amoebiasis is caused by the protozoan Entamoeba histolytica and the infection spreads through the release of cysts in the fecal matter.

Plasmodium, the parasite that causes malaria, completes its life cycle in two hosts. The asexual phase of the life cycle occurs in the human host, while the sexual phase occurs in the female Anopheles mosquito.
