Journal Article
Biodiversity and prevalence of parasites of domestic pigeons (Columba livia domestica) in a selected semiarid zone of South Khorasan, Iran
2012
Overview
Five species of nematodes and cestodes were collected from alimentary canals of pigeons: the nematodes were two species:
Ascaridia colombae
(16.66%) and
Hadjelia truncata
(1.96%), while the cestodes were
Cotugnia digonopora
(13.79%),
Raillietina magninumida
(18.62%) and
Raillietina achinobothridia
(32.35%); fecal examination revealed:
Eimeria
spp. (40.19%) and
Cryptosporidium
oocysts (2.94%); and blood smears showed:
Haemoproteus cloumbae
(47/05%); in mouth, throat and larynx:
Trichomonans gallinae
(57.84%); four species of ectoparasites were collected from feathers and subcutaneous nodules as follows: feathers:
Pseudolynchia canariensis
(63.72%),
Columbicola columbae
(79.41%),
Menopen gallinea
(44.11%); subcutaneous nodules:
Laminosioptes cysticola
(1.96%). From the parasitic fauna identified in this study, it is imperative to institute an integrated parasitic control through constant changing of litter, regular use of antihelminthics, anticoccidials and dusting of birds with pesticides.
