The most destructive species of spider mites—found in localities where experimental investigations were conducted in 1956—was the European red mite. Infestations of the Pacific spider mite and the two-spotted spider mite were limited and noneconomic.

An asset‐based model for fieldwork training workshops
Abstract Although conducting fieldwork is common for environmental scientists, not everyone feels welcomed or valued in field settings. This can result from a range of social and interpersonal challenges, including implicit bias, power dynamics, communication barriers, and mismatched expectations within research teams.

Genetic correlations have strong implications for species coexistence and their evolution. Studies addressing this issue generally tackle traits associated with competition for food and those underlying reproductive interference separately, whereas it is clear that the interaction among these is key to understand the ecology and evolution of closely ...

Spider mites, soybean aphids, and summer temperature
Temperatures in the high 90s and low 100s have prompted questions about how this will affect pests in soybeans. Spider mites typically flourish in hot, dry weather.

Exploring marking methods for the predatory hoverfly Sphaerophoria rueppellii (Diptera: Syrphidae)
As important pollinators and predators of aphids, hoverflies play an important role in ecosystems. This study focuses on identifying the best marking technique for the model species Sphaerophoria rueppellii that can be used to track hoverfly feeding and oviposition sites, evaluating three methods: rubidium (RbCl), fluorescein, and fluorescent dusts ...

Spider mites damaging some soybean
Twospotted spider mites are serious pests whenever hot, dry weather persists. Large spider mite populations may develop on both soybean and corn. Injury to soybean has been seen near Atlantic in southwestern Iowa.

Field experiments were conducted to determine the establishment and the effectiveness of certain predatory mites in controlling spider mites in raspberry grown under high tunnels. First, the efficacy of Neoseiulus fallacis and N.

Predation pressure varies vertically, with highest arthropod predation in the understory and highest bird predation in the canopy. Light availability differs across vertical strata, but predation patterns are more strongly influenced by height and forest structure than by light gradients.
