To record parasites these five avian species were placed kept in separate cages at Avian Conservation and Research Center, Department of Wildlife an Ecology, University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan. 100 fecal and 100 blood samples for each bird species were inspected to analyze internal parasites. During present study, 17 species of endoparasites 14 from fecal samples and three from blood were examined. Two species of ectoparasites i.e. mite Dermanyssus gallinae 42% and fowl ticks Args persicus 41%were studied. Blood parasites included Plasmodium juxtanucleare 50%, Leucoctoyzoon simond having parasitic prevalence 40%, and Aegyptinella pullorum having parasitic prevalence of 40%. Parasitic species recorded from fecal samples included 6 species of nematodes viz. Allodpa suctoria 2%. Syngamus trachea with parasitic prevalence of 60%, Capillaria annulata 37.5%, Ascardia galli 24%, Capillaria anatis 40% and Heterakis gallinarum 28.3%. Similarly, two species of trematodes viz. Prosthogonimus ovatus having parasitic prevalence of 50% and Prosthogonimus macrorchis 21% were also documented from fecal avian samples . Single cestode species Raillietina echinobothrida having parasitic prevalence of 72% and 3 protozoan species i.e. Eimeria maxima having parasitic prevalence of 21%, Giardia lamblia 41% and Histomonas meleagridis 18% were documented during corpological analysis. In our recommendation, proper sanitation, medication and vaccination of bird\u2019s enclousres are suggested to avoid parasites.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1519-6984.254251","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,11,26]],"date-time":"2021-11-26T12:12:45Z","timestamp":1637928765000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Prevalence of parasites in selected captive bird species"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"84","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4078-7157","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"R.","family":"Noor","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences,  Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2620-1447","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"A.","family":"Javid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences,  Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8105-3029","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"A.","family":"Hussain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences,  Pakistan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6330-9676","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"S.
