Abstract

In October 2004 a freeliving Stock Dove Columba oenas was found infected with Trichomonas spp in the district of Soest North RhineWestphalia Germany A huge buccal nodular lesion caused an occlusion of the esophagus and an external swelling The bone of the mandibula was already softened and nearly solubilised The microscopical examination of a wet swab sample from the carcass detected Trichomonas spp in huge numbers The morphological diagnosis of the flagellate revealed T gallinae Although trichomonosis is well described for several other columbid species around the world this is probably the first described case of a trichomonosis in a freeliving Stock Dove The possible prevalence in the dove population is discussed
