dc.description.abstractThrushes (Turdus spp.) are migratory passerine birds found in northern Europe during the summer months and in southern Europe and north of Africa during the winter. They constitute an important small game bird group very appreciated by Spanish hunters. Between October 2013 and February 2014, 90 adult song thrushes were collected for their exam. After necropsies, three species of helminths were macroscopically recovered from 15 birds (16.7%): Morishitium sp. (16.7%), Splendidofilaria mavis (6.7%) and Dilepis undula (7.8%). One of them showed an adult cestode in the lung. Moreover, 12 of the positive thrushes (80%) harboured microfilaria in pulmonary blood vessels and three of them (20%) were infected by Sarcocystis sp. on skeletal musculature. All parasitized birds showed lesions, ranging from mild to moderate airsacculitis, bronchitis and coelomitis associated to Morishitium sp. infection. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first description of Sarcocystis spp. in song thrushes from Spain. Our results reveal the need for further studies to evaluate the epidemiological role of song thrushes as spreaders of parasites during their annual migrationes
