The state of commercial augmentative biological control: plenty of natural enemies, but a frustrating lack of uptake [PDF]
, 2011 Augmentative biological control concerns the periodical release of natural enemies. In com- mercial augmentative biological control, natural enemies are mass-reared in biofactories for release in large numbers to obtain an immediate control of pests. The

Six New Phytoseiidae from Florida (Acarina: Phytoseiidae)
The Florida Entomologist, 1967 The number of known phytoseiid species has increased greatly in the past ten years. Recent collections, especially in the southeastern United States and the Caribbean area, have added many new species and distribution records in this family of mites. These mites are usually considered predaceous.

Pest species diversity enhances control of spider mites and whiteflies by a generalist phytoseiid predator [PDF]
, 2010 To test the hypothesis that pest species diversity enhances biological pest control with generalist predators, we studied the dynamics of three major pest species on greenhouse cucumber: Western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande ...

Comparison of thread-cutting behaviour in three specialist predatory mites to cope with complex webs of Tetranychus spider mites [PDF]
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.

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.The web‐nesting spider mite Schizotetranychus brevisetosus Ehara attacks predators outside the nest, but the effectiveness of this behaviour is unknown. Spreading predator‐mimicking glass beads over the web induced intense patrolling behaviour in females, which even captured and attacked beads.

Ants do not prey upon an extrafloral‐nectar‐feeding predatory mite
Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.The predatory mite Amblyseius herbicolus is an important natural enemy of various crop pests and occurs in agroforestry coffee systems, where it feeds on the extrafloral nectar of Inga trees. Because extrafloral nectaries are often vigorously defended by ants, we tested whether ants would attack and kill the mites near nectaries.
