Pest categorisation of Oligonychus mangiferus
EFSA Journal, Volume 19, Issue 11, November 2021., 2021 Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the mango red spider mite, Oligonychus mangiferus (Rahman and Sapra, 1940) (Acari: Prostigmata: Tetranychidae), for the territory of the EU. This species is not included in the EU Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072.

Population Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, Page 230-237, July 2021., 2021 The proportion of females increased as temperature increased and decreased as temperature decreased. Preoviposition period, oviposition period, fecundity and adult longevity, and egg hatchability rate were reduced significantly with increasing temperature. Abstract Temperature strongly affects insect biological response.
