Linguatulida

Linguatulida, an aberrant order of the Arachnida (Spiders), much degenerated through their parasitic mode of life. The body is wormlike, there are no jaws, and the limbs are only represented by two pairs of hooks near the anterior end. They occur in the bodies of various warm-blooded animals.
