Examination of 609 band-tailed pigeons (Columba fasciata fasciata) collected in Colorado revealed two species of cestodes and four nematodes. Two of these were new host records. Helminths found were Hymenolepsis armata, Raillietina sp., Ascaridia columbae, Splendidofilaria columbensis, S. hibleri and Chandlerella robinsoni. Of 609 pigeons examined, 76 (12.5%) harbored helminths. Helminths were not found in pigeons younger than 9 months of age.
