Unidentified microfilariae circulating in the blood of an umbrella cockatoo (Cacatua alba) are described. They are ensheathed, measure 102-152 microns long and 2-3 microns in diameter, and have four distinct and consistent gaps in the nuclear column. Attempts to infect mosquitoes (Culex pipiens pipiens) with the microfilariae were unsuccessful.
