Methods: Cross-sectional study carried-out in the city of Lima-Peru. 300 stool samples found in the soil of parks and hospital were collected. In addition, 30 sewage samples were also processed. Results: the fungus was isolated in 47 samples, Cryptococcus neoformans var neoformans was isolated in 7 of these samples, none was isolated from sewage samples. The seven strains showed 100% susceptibility to amphotericin B, nystatin and clotrimazol, but showed 100% resistance to fluconazole and itraconazole and 57% resistance to ketoconazole. Conclusions: Cryptococcus neoformansis found in the stools of domestic dove in metropolitan Lima. Objetivos: Investigar la presencia del hongo levaduriforme Cryptococcus neoformans en heces de palomas domésticas (Columba livia). Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo transversal realizado en la ciudad de Lima- Perú. Se recolectaron 300 muestras de heces encontradas en los suelos de parques y hospitales.
