Brugia pahangi is known to infect humans and dogs. Its associated symptoms and
complications, however, have not been fully understood in dogs. Herein, we reported the
observations of B. pahangi infections in dogs with scrotal mass, liver mass, haemolytic
jaundice, and central vestibular disorder.

We report two new records of chewing lice from avian pets in Peninsular Malaysia: Colpocephalum
apivorus Tendeiro, 1958 from an Oriental honey buzzard (Pernis ptilorhynchus (Temminck, 1821)),
and Myrsidea splendenticola Klockenhoff, 1973 from an albino house crow (Corvus splendens Vieillot,
1817). The scarcity of louse records from avian pets and wild birds, and the lack of louse research in
Malaysia are discussed.
