Fleas, lice and mites were collected from 24 and 120 scrub hares at Pafuri and Skukuza, Northern and Eastern Transvaal, respectively, in the Kruger National Park, and from 34 scrub hares in the Hluhluwe region, north-eastern KwaZulu-Natal. Ctenocephalides felis damarensis, the only flea recovered, reached peak burdens on the hares at each locality during late winter or spring. Juvenile hares harboured significantly fewer fleas than did adult animals. The lice Haemodipsus lyriocephalus and Haemodipsus setoni were collected from hares at each locality, with H. setoni generally being the most abundant. Listrophorus leporicolus was found on hares at Skukuza and Hluhluwe, and mites of the genus Cheyletiella were collected from hares at Skukuza.
分别从克鲁格国家公园北德兰士瓦省的帕富里的24只灌丛野兔以及东德兰士瓦省的斯库库扎的120只灌丛野兔身上，还有夸祖鲁 - 纳塔尔省东北部Hluhluwe地区的34只灌丛野兔身上采集跳蚤、虱子和螨虫。唯一采集到的跳蚤物种猫栉首蚤指名亚种在每个地点的野兔身上，于冬末或春季达到最高寄生量。幼年野兔身上寄生的跳蚤明显少于成年动物。在每个地点的野兔身上都采集到了虱子物种头凹血蚤和赛氏血蚤，其中赛氏血蚤通常数量最多。在斯库库扎和Hluhluwe的野兔身上发现了兔痒螨，并且在斯库库扎的野兔身上采集到了雪列螨属的螨虫。
