Abstract: A captive Australian Crested Pigeon, Ocyphaps lophotes, at the Jurong Bird Park, Singapore, showed clinical signs including emaciation and bilateral paralysis of the limbs. X-rays showed ventricular dilatation, and although symptomatic treatment was given, this bird did not recover and was euthanized. Autopsy revealed cyst-like structures in the myocardial tissue, suggesting microsporidia infection.
