In this context, the present study evaluates the ecology of both ectoparasites and endoparasites in 174 &lt;i&gt;C. borealis&lt;/i&gt; stranded along the northeastern coast of Brazil, contributing to the understanding of parasite diversity and its interactions with this Procellariiform species. During the necropsies of the carcasses, ectoparasites, such as lice, and endoparasites, such as helminths, were collected, totaling 9,836 parasites. Of the total, 67.82% of the birds had lice, and 99.43% presented with helminths. Lice accounted for 16.28% of the total, with eight taxa identified: Four Philopteridae - &lt;i&gt;Saemundsonia peusi&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Naubates&lt;/i&gt; sp., &lt;i&gt;Pectinopygus occidentalis&lt;/i&gt;, and &lt;i&gt;Halipeurus abnormis&lt;/i&gt;; Four Menoponidae - &lt;i&gt;Austromenopon echinatum&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Austromenopon&lt;/i&gt; sp., &lt;i&gt;Colpocephalum&lt;/i&gt; sp., and &lt;i&gt;Ancistrona vagelli&lt;/i&gt;. Helminths represented 82.73%, with six taxa: The nematodes &lt;i&gt;Seuratia shipleyi&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Contracaecum&lt;/i&gt; sp., &lt;i&gt;Eulimdana&lt;/i&gt; sp., and &lt;i&gt;Contracaecum pelagicum&lt;/i&gt;; The trematode &lt;i&gt;Renicola&lt;/i&gt; sp.; and the cestode &lt;i&gt;Tetrabothrius&lt;/i&gt; sp. A significant difference in helminth parasitism was observed between female and male &lt;i&gt;C. borealis&lt;/i&gt;, with males exhibiting a higher parasite load compared to females. This study records the first occurrence of the lice &lt;i&gt;Colpocephalum&lt;/i&gt; sp., &lt;i&gt;P. occidentalis&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;Naubates&lt;/i&gt; sp., and &lt;i&gt;A. vagelli&lt;/i&gt;, as well as the helminths &lt;i&gt;Tetrabothrius&lt;/i&gt; sp., &lt;i&gt;Eulimdana&lt;/i&gt; sp., and &lt;i&gt;Renicola&lt;/i&gt; sp. in &lt;i&gt;C. borealis&lt;/i&gt;. Additionally, it represents the greatest species richness of lice and helminths ever reported for this Procellariiform species.&lt;/p&gt;
