Abstract
The external parasites of native and exotic birds captured in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park are recorded. Forty-nine species of mites in 13 families were recovered from 10 species of birds. First records of Harpyrhynchidae are given for 'Amakihi and 'Apapane; Cytodites sp. (Cytoditidae) is recorded from the Red-billed Leiothrix for the first time in Hawai’i. Two undescribed species of Cheyletiellidae, 1 undescribed species of Pyroglyphidae, and 19 undescribed feather mites of the superfamily Analgoidea are noted.
