Distribution patterns and numerical variability of the coconut mite Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) and its predator Neoseiulus aff. paspalivorus DeLeon (Phytoseiidae) on the nuts of 3- to 7-month-old bunches of coconut palms were studied at two sites in Sri Lanka.

Targeting hidden pests: acaricides against the coconut mite Aceria guerreronis
Journal of Pest Science, 2016The control of hidden pest species with pesticides depends on the accurate timing of the application to reach the life stages during their only moment of vulnerability, which is when the pests (temporarily) leave their hiding places. A curious case involves the colonization of the coconut perianth, a bract-protected region of the fruit, by the coconut ...

Abstract In this paper, we report the first evidence for the suppression of coconut mite Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae) populations by augmenting the natural population of the predatory mite, Neoseiulus baraki (Athias-Henriot) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) by an inundative release with laboratory-bred N. baraki.

The coconut mite (CM), Aceria guerreronis Keifer, has spread to most coconut production areas worldwide and it has been considered one of the most notorious and important pests of coconut fruits in many countries. Although CM has been reported to damage coconuts for over 40 years in the Americas and Africa it continues to cause considerable losses in ...

The coconut mite Aceria guerreronis (Eriophyidae) is considered the most important pest of coconut fruits in Africa; however, quantitative knowledge about its distribution and abundance is lacking. We conducted four diagnostic surveys-three in Southern Benin and one along the coast of Tanzania-to determine the distribution of A.

Coconut mite injures the tender portion of young nuts and suck sap. Initially the damage appears as a triangular yellowish brown patch extending distally on the fruit surface from beneath the perianth. The injury ultimately leads to warting and longitudinal fissures on the nut surface. The growth of nut is prevented and ultimately the usual size of the

The Coconut Mite: Current Global Scenario
2016The coconut mite, Aceria guerreronis Keifer, is considered a serious, invasive pest of coconut in many coconut-growing countries. Though the pest was reported in the American and African region about half a century ago, this pest has drawn less attention of scientific research, but it has been intensified after its invasion into the Asian region.
