Thirty-two specimens of Columbina picui (picui ground-dove) were examined, and a collection of arthropods was made by washing the external surface of the body and the nasal cavity. The species in the order Phthiraptera found and their respective prevalences, mean abundance and mean intensity were: Columbicola passerinae (84.4%; 10.3; 12.2), Hohorstiella passerinae (21.9%; 0.7; 3.1) and Physconelloides eurysema (3.1%; 0.1; 2). The gamasid mites found in the birds and their respective prevalences, mean abundance and mean intensity were: Pellonyssus marui (31.3%; 1.2; 3.9), Ornithonyssus bursa (15.6%; 0.2. ;1.2) and Mesonyssus sp. (6.3%; 0.1; 1). Columbicola passerinae, H. passerinae, P. eurysema, O. bursa, P. marui and Mesonyssus sp. were recorded for the first time infecting C. picui in Brazil. Except for O. bursa, the other species are reported for the first time in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
对32只皮氏 Columbina picui（皮氏地鸠）标本进行了检查，并通过冲洗鸟体体表和鼻腔采集了节肢动物。发现的食毛目物种及其各自的患病率、平均丰度和平均感染强度分别为：雀鸽虱 Columbicola passerinae（84.4%；10.3；12.2）、雀形霍氏鸟虱 Hohorstiella passerinae（21.9%；0.7；3.1）和宽膜禽羽虱 Physconelloides eurysema（3.1%；0.1；2）。在鸟类中发现的革螨及其各自的患病率、平均丰度和平均感染强度分别为：丸井佩氏螨 Pellonyssus marui（31.3%；1.2；3.9）、热带禽刺螨 Ornithonyssus bursa（15.6%；0.2；1.2）和中禽螨属 Mesonyssus sp.（6.3%；0.1；1）。雀鸽虱、雀形霍氏鸟虱、宽膜禽羽虱、热带禽刺螨、丸井佩氏螨和中禽螨属在巴西首次被记录感染皮氏 Columbina picui。除热带禽刺螨外，其他物种在巴西南里奥格兰德州均为首次报道。
