The diffusion of rock-pigeon (domestic form of Columba livia Gmelin 1789) is greatly increasing owing to its high reproductivity; for this reason it is present in both countries and cities. This bird is considered an important vector of pathogens to man and domestic animals, and today it represents a serious hygienic-sanitary problem. Therefore we checked for the presence of yeasts in feces of rock-pigeons nesting in the Regional Park "La Mandria" (near Turin), visited mostly by school-children and retired. The yeasts isolated were: Candida albicans, C. krusei, C. guillermondii, C. intermedia, C. lusitaniae, C. parapsilosis, C. pseudotropicalis, C. rugosa, C. tropicalis, Cryptococcus albidus, C. laurentii, C. neoformans, C. terreus, Pichia membranaefaciens, Rhodotorula rubra, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, S. oleaginosus, S. telluris, Torulopsis candida, Trichosporon cutaneum. The incidence of the species isolated is reported on Tables 1 and 2.
原鸽（家鸽，即1789年格梅林命名的原鸽的家养形式）因其高繁殖力，扩散速度正大幅增加；因此，在乡村和城市均有其身影。这种鸟类被认为是人类和家畜病原体的重要传播媒介，如今它构成了一个严重的卫生保健问题。因此，我们检查了在“拉曼德里亚”地区公园（靠近都灵）筑巢的原鸽粪便中的酵母，该公园主要是学童和退休人员常去之地。分离出的酵母有：白色念珠菌、克鲁斯念珠菌、季也蒙念珠菌、中间念珠菌、葡萄牙念珠菌、近平滑念珠菌、伪热带念珠菌、皱落念珠菌、热带念珠菌、浅白隐球菌、罗伦隐球菌、新生隐球菌、土生隐球菌、膜醭毕赤酵母、深红酵母、酿酒酵母、产油酵母、土生酵母、假丝球拟酵母、皮状丝孢酵母。分离出的菌种发生率列于表1和表2。
