Baker (1945), McGregor (1949) and Baker and (1973). The six species groups proposed by Meyer were caudatus, Pritchard (1953) mentioned T. palmatus as the type species of trisetosus, albae, elegans, granati and quadrisetosus. Thus, the the genus and provided a redescription based on specimens from genera erected by Mitrofanov (1973) were synonymized with the Berlese Collection.

Abstract The expansion of red palm mite (RPM), Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) in Brazil could impact negatively the native plant species, especially of the family Arecaceae. To determine which species could be at risk, we investigated the development and reproductive potential of R. indica on 19 plant species including 13 native species to the Brazilian Amazon (12 Arecaceae and one Heliconiaceae), and six exotic species, four Arecaceae, a Musaceae and a Zingiberaceae.

  • BIOLOGICAL CONTROL of Raoiella Indica (ACARI: TENUIPALPIDAE) in the CARIBBEAN: POTENTIAL and CHALLENGES
    BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF Raoiella indica (ACARI: TENUIPALPIDAE) IN THE CARIBBEAN: POTENTIAL AND CHALLENGES Y. C. Colmenarez 1 , B. Taylor 2 , S.T. Murphy 2 & D. Moore 2 1 CABI South America, FCA/ UNESP , Botucatu , Brazil; 2 CABI Inglaterra, Bakeham Lane, Egham, Surrey, UK. The Red Palm Mite (RPM), Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) , is a polyphagous pest that attacks different crops and ornamental plants. It was reported in the Caribbean region in 2004 and is currently a widely distributed pest on most of the Carib bean islands. It was also observed in Venezuela, Florida, and Mexico and more recently in Brazil and Colombia. Within the pest management strategies, biological control is considered a sustainable control method, with the potential to regulate R. indica po pulations on a large scale. Evaluations were carried out in Trinidad and Tobago, Antigua and Barbuda, Saint Kitts and Nevis , and Dominica, in order to evaluate the population dynamics of R. indica and the natural enemies present in each country. In the Nar iva Swamp and surrounding areas in Trinidad, Amblyseius largoensis (Acari: Phytoseiidae) was the most frequent predator on coconut trees. Other predators reported were two phytoseiid species : Amblyseius anacardii and Leonseius sp . (Acari: Phytoseiidae), an d a species of Cecidomyiidae (larvae) (Insecta: Diptera) , which were reported as being associated with RPM populations on the Moriche palm and in several cases were observed feeding on RPM. Of these predators, densities of the phytoseiid Leonseius sp. were most abundant and positively related to the densities of the red palm mite. Different pathogens isolated from the red palm - mite colonies were evaluated.

The cuticular wall of the bothridium shows three recognizable regions an external (distal) smooth part, a central region with a complex structured wall, and an internal (proximal) smooth part beginning where the bothridium bends sharply ending in the setal insertion. The central wall is provided with many tubules or chambers, which in the most distal region are filled with a secretion but otherwise are empty (likely filled with air). Distinct chambers separated by septa are not evident. The bothridial seta is similarly bent and is inserted in a proximal cuticular ring via only a few suspension fibers. Two dendrites terminating with tubular bodies innervate the bothridial seta. The dendrites are distally surrounded by a thick dense dendritic sheath. The overall structure of the trichobothrium, with a simple sharp bend, presents an intermediate condition compared with the straight trichobothrium of early derivative oribatid mites and the double-curved, S-shaped base found in more evolved taxa.
