Eriophyoid mites (Acari: Prostigmata: Eriophyoidea) from the Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean): new reports and a preliminary check-list [PDF]
, 2008 In the 20th Century, about 20 species of eriophyoids were listed for the Maltese Islands but these reports were entirely based on plant gall surveys.

Two New Species of Eriophyoid Mites (Acari: Eriophyidae) Infesting Acacia Trees from Egypt [PDF]
Acarines: Journal of the Egyptian Society of Acarology, 2014 Two new species of eriophyoid mites were found in Egypt. They were described and illustrated as Tetra ibrahimi sp. nov. and Aculops tanani sp. nov. They were collected on Acacia nilotica (L.) Delile (Fabaceae).

, 2023 Eriophyoid mites (Eriophyoidea) are among the largest groups in the Acari; their higher-level phylogeny, however, remains unresolved due to the availability of limited number of morphological characters, some of which are suspected as homoplasy ...

Insects, 2021 Viticultural practices and landscape composition are the main drivers influencing biological pest control in vineyards. Predatory mites, mainly phytoseiid (Phytoseiidae) and tydeoid mites (Tydeidae), are important to control phytophagous mites ...

A new method of gall mite management: application of artificial defoliation to control Aceria pallida [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Artificial defoliant is widely applied to cotton to facilitate mechanical harvesting and successfully controls leaf diseases by blocking pathogen epidemical cycles; however, this technique is rarely used to control herbivores.

Diversity, 2023 Eriophyoid mites (Acariformes, Eriophyoidea) are microscopic chelicerates morphologically greatly preadapted to endoparasitism on plants. Members of at least six phylogenetically distant eriophyoid genera from two families homoplastically transitioned to

Comparison of thread-cutting behaviour in three specialist predatory mites to cope with complex webs of Tetranychus spider mites [PDF]
, 2009 Anti-predator defenses provided by complex webs of Tetranychus mites can severely impede the performance of generalist predatory mites, whereas this may not be true for specialist predatory mites.

PLoS ONE, 2016 Latitudinal patterns in herbivory, i.e. variations in plant losses to animals with latitude, are generally explained by temperature gradients. However, earlier studies suggest that geographical variation in abundance and diversity of gall-makers may be ...

Global patterns and drivers of herbivorous eriophyoid mite species diversity
, 2022 Aim: Environmental drivers and host richness play key roles in affecting herbivore diversity. However, the relative effects of these factors and their effects on lineages characterized by high host specificity are not well known.
