Nematode predation by oribatid mites (Acari: Oribatida)

International Journal of Acarology, 1980
Abstract Oribatid mites in 14 different genera were maintained or cultured in the laboratory and their possible nematophagous habits observed. Individuals of Pergalumna spp. displayed the greatest predilection for nematophagy. Specimens of Galumna sp., Fuscozetes sp., and Nothrus sp. fed less frequently. Excluding a Ceratozetes sp.

Predation-related odours reduce oviposition in a herbivorous mite

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2009
When adult females of the herbivorous mite, Tetranychus urticae, were exposed to the predatory mite, Phytoseiulus persimilis, they laid fewer eggs than females that had not been exposed to P. persimilis when transferred onto a new leaf patch. However, when T. urticae females were exposed to either products of P.

Modelling parasitism and predation of mosquitoes by water mites

Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2006
Parasitism and predation are two ecological interactions that can occur simultaneously between two species. This is the case of Culicidae (Insecta: Diptera) and water mites (Acari: Hydrachnidia). The larva mites are~parasites of aquatic and semiaquatic insects, and deutonymphs and adults are predators of insect larvae and eggs.

Paper Chromatography to Detect Predation on Mites

The Canadian Entomologist, 1965
Abstract Predators that have fed on Panonychus ulmi (Koch) and Bryobia arborea Morgan and Anderson can be distinguished by the orange and reddish carotenoid biochromes derived from the prey. Predation on the two species of mites cannot be clearly

Neglected Predators: Water Mites (Acari:Parasitengona:Hydrachnellae) in Freshwater Communities

Journal of the North American Benthological Society, 1989
Despite the abundance and ubiquity of water mites, their importance as predators in freshwater communities is seldom investigated. This neglect is likely due both to the perceived difficulty in identifying aquatic mites, and to the lack of easily available information on the feeding habits of these animals.

Acaricide Efficacy on Spider Mite and Spider Mite Predators on Almonds, 1986

Insecticide and Acaricide Tests, 1988
Abstract Trees were drip-irrigated, 6-yr-old ‘Nonpareil’ or ‘Carmel’ almond trees, and were located in a commercial orchard near Shatter, Calif. Treatments were assigned according to a randomized complete block design consisting of 8 single-tree replicates that were blocked by almond variety and location. Treatments were applied on 1 and

Predation and mycophagy by endeostigmatid mites (Acariformes: Prostigmata)

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 1988
The endeostigmatid mitesAlicorhagia fragilis andAlycus spp. are nematophages. Nematodes are cut up by the chelicerae or ingested whole, but are difficult to recognize as gut contents.Alycus roseus is a strict predator and does not consume microphytes.Alicorhagia fragilis is an omnivore. When nematodes are not available, adult females consume more fungi,
