Abstract
Raillietinosis is a disease of zoonotic importance. The objective of the present work was to report the presence of Raillietina sp. in Cacique parrots (Deroptyus accipitrinus fuscifrons) in captivity by coprology and necropsy. Analyzes revealed that the birds studied were found to be parasitized by cestodes compatible with Raillietina sp. This registry is the first report in Argentina and it acquires great importance since there is the possibility of its transmission to their owners and / or professionals, such as veterinarians, biologists and keepers who contact more directly with these birds.
