External parasites or ectoparasites, are arthropods that live on or in the skin or feathers, using the host as both shelter and food source. Ectoparasites can have significant impacts on animal health and productivity. The aim of this research was to estimate the prevalence and ectoparasites diversity in pigeons of Zabol, southeast of Iran. A total of 264 pigeons were selected randomly (175 males and 89 females) to evaluate the presence of different ectoparasites. Ectoparasites were collected from different parts of the body and from walls and seams of cubbyholes, using hand lens, forceps, and flashlights to increasing the see sight. The samples were preserved in 70 % alcohol and cleared in lactophenol. The overall prevalence of external parasites in pigeon was 78.40 % [female (33.3 %) and male (66.7 %)]. There was no significant difference of infestation of ectoparasites between male and female ( > 0.05). Prevalence was higher in adult pigeons (84.11 %) than pipers (54.0 %). Two species of ectoparasites were identified: and .
外寄生虫或体表寄生虫是生活在皮肤或羽毛上或体内的节肢动物，将宿主作为庇护所和食物来源。外寄生虫会对动物健康和生产力产生重大影响。本研究的目的是估计伊朗东南部扎博勒市鸽子的外寄生虫患病率和多样性。总共随机挑选了264只鸽子（175只雄性和89只雌性）来评估不同外寄生虫的存在情况。使用手持放大镜、镊子和手电筒从鸽子身体的不同部位以及鸽舍的墙壁和缝隙中收集外寄生虫，以扩大视野。样本保存在70%的酒精中，并用乳酸酚进行透明处理。鸽子外寄生虫的总体患病率为78.40%[雌性（33.3%）和雄性（66.7%）]。雄性和雌性外寄生虫感染率无显著差异（>0.05）。成年鸽子的患病率（84.11%）高于幼鸽（54.0%）。鉴定出了两种外寄生虫： 和 。
