  • Predation by Insects and Mites
    1.2 Predation by insects and mites Maurice W. Sabelis & Paul C.J. van Rijn University of Amsterdam, Section Population Biology, Kruislaan 320, 1098 SM Amsterdam, The Netherlands Predatory arthropods probably play a prominent role in determining the numbers of plant-feeding thrips on plants under natural conditions. Several reviews have been published listing the arthropods observed to feed and reproduce on a diet of thrips. In chronological order the most notable and comprehensive reviews have been presented by Lewis (1973), Ananthakrishnan (1973, 1979, 1984), Ananthakrishnan and Sureshkumar (1985) and Riudavets (1995) (see also general arthropod enemy inventories published by Thompson and Simmonds (1965), Herting and Simmonds (1971) and Fry (1987)). Numerous arthropods, recognised as predators of phytophagous thrips, have proven their capacity to eliminate or suppress thrips populations in greenhouse and field crops of agricultural importance (see chapters 16 and 18 of Lewis, 1997), but a detailed analysis of the relative importance of predators, parasitoids, parasites and pathogens under natural conditions is virtually absent. Such investigations would improve understanding of the mortality factors and selective forces moulding thrips behaviour and life history, and also indicate new directions for biological control of thrips. In particular, such studies may help to elucidate the consequences of introducing different types of biological control agents against different pests and diseases in the same crop, many of which harbour food webs of increasing complexity. There are three major reasons why food web complexity on plants goes beyond one- predator-one-herbivore systems. First, it is the plant that exhibits a bewildering variety of traits that promote or reduce the effectiveness of the predator.

(eds) Acarology XIII: Proceedings of the International Congress. Zoosymposia, 6, 1 –304. Abstract Decline in rainforest cover in many areas of Australia is being countered by various methods of forest reestablishment, in - cluding ecological restoration plantings, timber plantations, and unmanaged regrowth. We used assemblages of soil - and lit - ter-dwelling mites to determine which style most closely recaptures the assemblage structure of mites associated with intact rainforest at 84 tropical and subtropical sites in eastern Australia. The six habitat types surveyed were pasture (the typical ‘pre-restoration’ state), unmanaged regrowth, monoculture forestry, multi-species forestry, ecological restoration and intact rainforest (the ‘target’ state) . Forestry and ecological restoration sites were 5 –20 years old. Mites were extracted from soil/li- tter samples and (excluding Oribatida) identified to family or to finer levels.
