Biologia de Acarophenax lacunatus (Cross & Krantz) (Prostigmata: Acarophenacidae) sobre Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) e Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens) (Coleoptera: Cucujidae)

Abstract: -The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of six different temperatures on the development of Acarophenax lacunatus (Cross & Krantz) using eggs of Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens) as hosts. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Ácaro, tabela de vida, controle biológico, praga de grãos armazenados Os membros da família Acarophenacidae (Acari: Prostigmata) são parasitas de ovos de várias espécies de insetos e estão distribuídos em sete gêneros: Protophenax, Aethiophenax, Aegiptophena… Show more

“…Pyemotes tritici is one of the most studied species of this group. It has been reported to parasitize more than one hundred insect species of different orders (Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera, Neuroptera and Strepsiptera), as reported by Oliveira et al ( 2007 ). Wrensch and Bruce ( 1991 ) said that the intrinsic rate of increase of this species exceeded the growth rate of any potential arthropod pest, each female producing 200-350 offspring (Tomalski et al 1988 ;Hoschele and Tanigoshi 1993 ).…”

“…Other species of this group have been considered potentially useful for the control of several pests, including several stored product insects, the pink bollworm [ Pectinophora gossypiella (Saunders)], the fi re ant ( Solenopsis invicta Buren) and the tomato leafminer [ Tuta absoluta (Meyerick)] (Bruce 1983 ;Cunha et al 2006 ;Oliveira et al 2007 ). Diets for the mass production of P. tritici were developed (Bruce 1983 ), but the major constraints for the practical use of mites of this group in biological control projects are the lack of specifi city of some of these species and the ability to cause dermatitis to humans (De Santis 1945 ;Vaivanijkul and Haramoto 1969 ;Moser 1975 ).…”
