    Nodular papillomatous lesions combined with proliferation and formation of scales and crusts were observed on both tarsi of a dead chaffinch in February 2004 in the eastern part of the Czech Republic. Presence of papillomavirus was confirmed by electron microscope examination and histological study. Numerous females and larvae of Knemidokoptes jamaicensis were found in the crust scraps from both legs. The beak papillomatosis in a chaffinch was observed for the first time.

    Nodulární papillomatózní léze kombinovaná s tvorbou šupinek a krust byly pozorovány na obou nohách uhynulé pěnkavy, nalezené v únoru 2004 ve východní části České republiky. Přítomnost papillomaviru v lézi byla potvrzena histologicky a elektronmikroskopicky. Početné samice a larvy roztoče Knemidokoptes jamaicensis byly nalezeny v seškrabech krust z obou noh. Papillomatóza zobáku byla pozorována poprvé.
