ABSTRACT: The bird species Nyctibius griseus, commonly known as Common potoo, has an insectivorous diet and is highly adapted to different environments, including urban areas, making it an easy and even expected target for human-related incidents, such as glass collisions, roadkills and domestic animal’s attacks. In this way, the increase of rescues and forwardings of this species to wildlife receiving centers is visible. In addition, these animals can often be found and sent to these centers even if they are healthy, due to the population's lack of knowledge about the species and its habits. Data from the clinical evaluation of these animals, such as physiological and hematological parameters, are scarce, directly implying the clinical diagnosis. Thereby, this work presents hematological values of 7 individuals of Nyctibius griseus received for veterinary clinical care at the Wildlife Center of the Federal University of Mato Grosso, aiming to provide descriptive values of the parameters of the erythrocyte and leukocyte series to the wild animal clinic. The data obtained were similar to those already established for avian species with habits similar to the Common potoo, giving credibility to such results, and these numbers can be used as a hematological reference for the species.
