Diversity Patterns and Ecological Network Features of Soil Mite Trophic Groups in Karst Cave Ecosystems. [PDF]
Along karst cave gradients, soil mites show rising α‐diversity yet declining functional diversity toward cave entrances. Predatory mites sustain ecological network stability as keystone taxa despite simplified communities in oligotrophic zones. This reveals biodiversity maintenance mechanisms in extreme subterranean ecosystems.

Status and Management of Pyrethroid Resistance in the Predatory Mite, \u3ci\u3eAmblyseius Fallacis\u3c/i\u3e (Acarina: Phytoseiidae) [PDF]
Low levels of (5-15 fold) resistance to synthetic pyrethroid (SP) insecticides occur in unexposed apple orchard populations of the predatory mite, Amblyseius fallacis Garman.

Survey of Predators Associated With European Red Mite (\u3ci\u3ePanonychus Ulmi\u3c/i\u3e; Acari: Tetranychidae) in Ohio Apple Orchards [PDF]
A survey was conducted to identify the types and relative abundance of predatory arthropods associated with Panonychus ulmi in 21 Ohio apple orchards. Mite populations were sampled by leaf brushing, and insects and spiders were sampled by limb jarring. A

Neoseiulus agrestis as a biological agent, and monitoring of introducted thrips in greenhouses [PDF]
Oligophagus Neoseiulus agrestis (Karg, 1960) can be used as predator on vegetable, flower and berry crops. It is capable of feeding on Tetranychidae and Tarsonemidae. The ability to regulate the number of Thripidae has been established.
