Information was requested on the cause of extensive lesions and death of a blackbuck antelope (Antilope cervicapra). Psoroptes cuniculi, the ear mite of domestic rabbits, was identified as the cause of the lesions. Death of the antelope was attributed to a secondary bacterial infection. This is the first report of P. cuniculi on blackbuck antelope. The potential impact of these mites on blackbuck antelope and other exotics in Texas is unknown.
针对一只印度羚（印度黑羚）身上出现大面积损伤及死亡的原因进行了调查。家兔耳螨（兔痒螨）被确定为损伤的病因。该羚羊的死亡归因于继发性细菌感染。这是关于兔痒螨感染印度羚的首次报告。目前尚不清楚这些螨虫对得克萨斯州的印度羚及其他外来物种的潜在影响。
