Leur capacité à développer rapidement des résistances aux acaricides les plus couramment utilisés, mais également l’exsudation de composés toxiques pour les prédateurs par des solanacées pileuses comme la tomate, et enfin les faibles humidités relatives régulièrement observées en serres de tomate sont autant de paramètres qui affectent l’efficacité des méthodes de lutte utilisées jusqu’à aujourd’hui. Un acarien prédateur de la famille des Phytoseiidae, Phytoseiulus longipes , est un candidat potentiel pour contrôler les pullulations de T. evansi et T. urticae . Des quatre populations connues de ce prédateur, deux (une argentine et une brésilienne) sont capables de se développer et de se reproduire lorsqu’elles sont nourries avec T. evansi sur tomate, alors que les deux autres (chilienne et sud africaine) ne le peuvent pas. Après avoir montré que toutes ces populations appartenaient à la même espèce, des travaux concernant les traits d’histoire de vie et l’attraction de plusieurs de ces populations pour des combinaisons d’espèces de proie et de substrats végétaux ont permis de caractériser des interrelations au sein du système tritrophique tomate – tétranyques tisserands – P. longipes et de confirmer qu’il existe bien deux comportements alimentaires distincts chez P. longipes . Ces différences pourraient être la conséquence d’une spécialisation du prédateur pour T. evansi , induite par une coévolution entre P. longipes et le complexe tomate – T. urticae et/ ou tomate – T. evansi . L’étude de la réponse physiologique de P. longipes aux faibles humidités relatives a montré que celui-ci fait partie des quatre Phytoseiidae connus les plus tolérants à la sécheresse. De plus, l’analyse des risques non intentionnels d’une introduction de P. longipes , ainsi que la confirmation, par des études en conditions semi-réelles de culture, que celui-ci peut contrôler les populations de T. evansi et T. urticae en serres de tomate, font de ce prédateur un excellent candidat en tant qu’agent de lutte biologique pour lutter contre les tétranyques tisserands en cultures protégées de tomate en Europe. MOTS CLEFS : contrôle biologique, Tetranychus evansi , Tetranychus urticae , tomate, Phytoseiulus longipes , traits d’histoire de vie, attraction, sécheresse, coévolution ABSTRACT The tomato spider mites pests Tetranychus evansi and T. urticae are difficult to control in tomato greenhouses. Their abilities to quickly develop resistances to acaricides, along with the exudation of toxic compounds from hairy solanaceous plants such as tomato and the drought occurring in tomato greenhouses, are important factors that hinder the control of tetranychids in tomato. A predaceous mite of the family Phytoseiidae, Phytoseiulus longipes , is a potential candidate for controlling spider mites outbreaks in these crops. Among the four known populations of this predator, two (from Argentina and Brazil) are able to develop and reproduce well fed on T. evansi on tomato, while the two others (from Chile and Sout Africa) cannot. After having shown that all those populations actually belong to the same species, studies about the life history and attractiveness of several of those populations depending on prey species/ plant supports allowed to characterize the relationships in the tritrophic system tomato – spider mites – P. longipes and to confirm that there are two distincts feeding behaviours in this predatory mite species. This phenomena is probably due to a host-plant mediated specialisation for the prey, itself coming from a coevolution between the predator and the complex tomato - T. urticae and/ or tomato - T. evansi . Study about the egg hatching response to humidity of P. longipes showed that this predator is among the four most drought tolerant species studied to date. Furthermore, an analysis of the indirect ecological effects of a possible introduction of P. longipes, along with the confirmation from semi-field trials that this predator is able to control spider mite pests in tomato greenhouses, lead to the conclusion that P. longipes is an excellent candidate for the biological control of T. evansi and T. urticae in tomato protected crops in Europe. KEY WORDS : biological control, Tetranychus evansi , Tetranychus urticae , tomato, Phytoseiulus longipes , life history traits, attractiveness, drought, coevolution.

As larvas, ninfas e fêmeas adultas foram semelhantes e superiores na atividade predatória sobre o ácaro da leprose que os machos adultos. Dentre os estágios imaturos, a larva foi a mais atacada pelo predador, e o aumento da relação predador: presa resultou em níveis maiores de prepdação. A presença da verrugose nos frutos causou uma diminuição significativa na predação de E. cilrifolius sobre B. phoenicis. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Arthropoda, controle biológico, atividade predatória, relação predador-presa, verrugose. ABSTRAC The predatory activity ofEuseius citrifolius Denmark & Muma (Acari: Phytoseiidae) upon the citrus leprosis mite, Brevipalpus phoeni cis (Geijskes) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) was studied. It was found that the phytoseiid larva, nymph and adult female, showed similar leveis of predation, and were better predators than adult males. Among the immature stages of prey, the larval stage was the most ftequently consumed by ali life stages ofthe predator. lncreasi ng predator: prey ratios resulted in higher predation rates. The presence ofcitrus scab disease on the fruits caused a signiflcant decrease in predation of B. phoenicis by E. citrifolius.

Received: 21 January 2020; Accepted: 14 February 2020; Published: 18 February 2020 Abstract: Some plant species possess structures known as leaf domatia, which house mites. The association between domatia-bearing plants and mites has been proposed to be mutualistic, and has been found to be important in species of economic value, such as grapes, cotton, avocado and coffee. This is because leaf domatia affect the distribution, diversity and abundance of predatory and mycophagous mites found on the leaf surface. As a result, plants are thought to benefit from increased defence against pathogens and small arthropod herbivores. This study assesses the relative diversity and composition of mites on an economically important plant host (Coffea aribica) in comparison to mites found in a neighbouring indigenous forest in South Africa. Our results showed that the coffee plantations were associated with only predatory mites, some of which are indigenous to South Africa. This indicates that coffee plantations are able to be successfully colonised by indigenous beneficial mites.

The survey has been carried out in six fragments, divided into sets of two fragments, each one neighboring one sort of agricultural environment: sugarcane crop (FS), orange crop (FO) and pasture (FP). In each fragment, ten individuals of Actinostemon communis (Euphorbiaceae) were selected, five at the edge and five within each fragment. Iphiseiodes zuluagai, often registered in orange crops, was more abundant in the fragments neighboring such crop, as well as some species of Tarsonemidae. In this study, the Phytoseiidae were more abundant in the fragments neighboring pasture, while sugarcane crops probably favored occurrence of phytophagous mites in the neighboring fragments.

In order to evaluate the effect of fungicides, leaf samples were colleted at random from treated and untreated plants of the Tropical, Aurora 1 and Aurora 2 cultivars, from June 2004 to February 2006. From the results obtained it can be concluded that: plants with or without treatment showed high populations of predatory mites, indicating that the treatments were innocuous on the mite populations. A diversified composition of the mite community was observed. The Phytoseiidae family had the highest richness in numbers and species of mites. Euseius citrifo- lius and E. concordis were the most abundant species. Plants with or without treatment had high abundances of predatory mites, with a predominance of E. citrifolius.

DE MORAES e20200729 Abstract: The aim of the present study was to conduct a survey of mites of the family Phytoseiidae associated with plants of the natural vegetation and cultivated forests in 93 sites of three biomes (Amazon Forest, Cerrado and Pantanal) in the Mato Grosso State. (Suppl. 3) Twenty-one species of 11 genera, of the three phytoseiid subfamilies were registered. 93(Suppl. 3) Amblyseius Berlese was the most diverse genus, with fi ve species. Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma was the most common species, collected from 12 plant species in fi ve DOI collection sites. Eleven phytoseiid species were reported for the fi rst time in the Mato 10.1590/0001-3765202120200729 Grosso State. Key words: Diversity, faunistic survey, biological control, Parasitiformes, predator. INTRODUCTION importance to establish effective programs for the biological control of pest organisms. Mato Grosso is a large state of the central-western Phytoseiidae is considered the most region of Brazil, occupying an area of about 10% important family of predatory mites, with several 2 (903.207 km ) of the country´s territory ( IBGE species being produced and used commercially 2020) and extending over parts of three biomes for the biological control of arthropod pests, (Amazon Forest, Cerrado and Pantanal).
