Plant Feeding by a Predatory Mite Inhabiting Cassava
Experimental & Applied Acarology, 2002Plant feeding by arthropod predators may strongly affect the dynamics of bi-and tri-trophic interactions. We tested whether a predatory mite, Typhlodromalus aripo, feeds upon its host plant, cassava. This predator species is an effective biological control agent of Monoychellus tanajoa (the cassava green mite or CGM) a herbivorous mite specific to ...

Resistance to chlorpyriphos in the predatory mite Kampimodromus aberrans
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2011The predatory mite Kampimodromus aberrans (Oudemans) is a key biocontrol agent in vineyards in Italy and Southern Europe. Its susceptibility to common pesticides (e.g., organophosphates) has been considered an important factor in preventing successful biocontrol of phytophagous mites. Nevertheless, populations of K.

Predatory mites (Gamasina, Mesostigmata)
Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 1999Abstract Mesostigmata or Gamasida are known from a wide range of habitats. Most of them are free living predators in soil and litter, on the soil surface or on plants. Some are able to disperse rapidly by phoresy. In agroecosystems, edaphic Mesostigmata are important predators of Nematoda, Collembola and insect larvae, and those living on plants may ...

Predatory Mites for Biological Control of Phytophagous Mites
2019In this chapter we present methods for rearing predatory mites of family Phytoseiidae in the laboratory and in the greenhouse. In the laboratory, the suggested method is to rear specialized phytoseiids (Type I) in artificial arenas, using the two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae as food, and to rear generalist phytoseiids (types II, III, and IV)

Different responses to hypobaria between spider mites and a predatory mite
International Journal of Acarology, 2017Spider mites are a quarantine pest for different agricultural products imported to Japan, which may require phytosanitary treatments.

CONTROL OF TYROGLYPHOID MITES IN STORED GRAIN BY THE PREDATORY MITE CHEYLETUS ERUDITUS (SCHRANK)
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1965The authors deal with the problem of mite infestation of stored grain in Czechoslovakia, where more than 10% of the grain is infested by Acarus siro L. and Glycyphagus destructor (Schr.). The methods of mite control hitherto used (fumigants CH3Br, HCN, and ALP) were poor and of short duration.

Contrasting structures of plant–mite networks compounded by phytophagous and predatory mite species
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2018Differences in the feeding habits between phytophagous and predatory species can determine distinct ecological interactions between mites and their host plants. Herein, plant-mite networks were constructed using available literature on plant-dwelling mites from Brazilian natural vegetation in order to contrast phytophagous and predatory mite networks ...

Experimental and Applied Acarology, 2007
A method was developed for the rearing of coconut mite, Aceria guerreronis Keifer (Acari: Eriophyidae), and its predatory mite Neoseiulus baraki (Athias-Henriot) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) on embryo culture seedlings of coconut (Cocos nucifera) in the laboratory. Seedlings in the ages of

On a new predatory Mite of economic Importance
Bulletin of Entomological Research, 1952The biology and systematics of the predatory mites of the family Laelaptidae have received increased attention since they have been shown to be of importance in the control of phytophagous mites, especially Tetranychidae, resistant to modern insecticides.
