Type host. Columba livia livia Gmelin, 1789 .

Remarks. See comments under B. insolitunguicolata . The other alleged hosts for B. columbae , i.e. two species of Zenaida cited by Emerson (1972), Conti & Forrester (1981) and Galloway & Palma (2008) should be regarded with suspicion, because they may not harbour this species, as it has been pointed out above.
