Mistletoe infestation of A. cibaria seems to be infrequent but it is probably not always critically distinguished from A. aneura, mulga. Almost equally low numbers of four species have been recorded, Amyema maidenii, pale-leaved mistletoe, A. preissii, wire-leaved, Lysiana exocarpi, harlequin and 2 records of L. subfalcata, northern mistletoe, the only other record of which is on Acacia victoriae.
