“…brasiliensis.) (Hernandes & Feres 2006), jatobá (Hymenaea martiana Hayne, Fabaceae) (Feres et al 2010), and citrus (Rutaceae) (Vela et al 2017) bioecological aspects of tydeids are poorly understood for most species; perhaps, for this reason, their importance is underestimated; however, they can play a significant role as alternative prey for phytoseiids and other predators (Pallini Filho et al 1992;Vela et al 2017). Furthermore, studies have reported tydeid-fungi associations causing plant diseases, where these mites probably feed on these fungi (Pemberton & Turner 1989;Mendes et al 2021).…”

“…This structuring in the arrangement of species is critical for their survival as it facilitates the access of individuals to resources and ensures greater protection from natural enemies (Dittmann & Schausberger 2017). The intra-plant species distribution is often modulated by host characteristics, such as architecture and/or phenology, and by abiotic factors, such as precipitation, air humidity, and solar radiation incidence (Feres et al 2010). This information is essential for sampling and population monitoring of species in production areas.…”

Effective management of arthropod communities in agricultural environments requires knowledge of the diversity and distribution of species that inhabit host crops. Therefore, we conducted this study to evaluate the richness, abundance, and intra-plant distribution of the most abundant mite species in mango plants. Leaves or reproductive structures were collected monthly considering the different canopy quadrants (North, South, East, and West), the position of the branch (basal, median, and apical), and, in the case of leaves, their position on the branch (basal, median, and apical). A total of 28 species belonging to 12 mite families were identified. Cisaberoptus kenyae, Vilaia pamithus, and Oligonychus mangiferus were the most abundant phytophagous species, accounting for 87%, 6%, and 3% of the total number of mites collected, respectively. Vilaia pamithus was the most abundant species in the southern quadrant. Amblyseius largoensis (Phytoseiidae) and Cunaxa sp1. (Cunaxidae) were the most abundant among the predators (15.1% and 13.1%, respectively). The highest level of diversity was observed in the basal and median leaves of the basal and median branches of mangoes. The intra-plant distribution of these species was influenced by plant architecture and geographical position. Most species were found on mango leaves, whereas other species colonized inflorescences and/or fruits, but at low densities. In this study, we found considerable diversity of phytophagous and predator mites in mango plants. These predator mites may be crucial for controlling mango pests.

“…Bellini et al (2008) also stated that B. formosa was phytophagous, frequently occurring on the leaves of the rubber tree and spontaneously or naturally thriving on the leaves of herbaceous Euphorbiaceae such as Chamaesyce hirta (L.) Millsp., Chamaesyce hyssopifolia (L.) Small., Euphorbia heterophylla L., and Phyllanthus tenellus Roxb. Feres et al (2010) registered Brachytydeus sp. as one of the most common phytophagous mite occurring on Hymenaea martiana Hayne.…”

Pachira aquatica Aubl. is commonly used as an ornamental plant in urban areas of Brazil. The objective of the study was to investigate the occurrence of mites on P. aquatica, with emphasis on Brachytydeus formosa (Cooreman), and to describe aspects the external features of its mouthpart. The study was conducted in 2012 in Jaboticabal, State of São Paulo, Brazil. Ten trees of P. aquatica were selected for the experiment. Approximately 130 leaflets were collected from each tree, which were located in different quadrants (north, south, east, and west) and strata (upper, middle, and lower). The leaflets were placed in paper bags and transported to the laboratory. The mites were prepared on optical microscope slides. A total of eleven species of mites were found, belonging to eight different families. The species and genera of the organisms included B. formosa, Eutetranychus banksi (McGregor), Agistemus sp., Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank, 1781), Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes), Brevipalpus sp., Cheletogenes sp., Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma, Euseius sp., Neoseiulus sp., and only one specimen from the Bdellidae family. The predominant species was B. formosa, with 8,142 mites equally distributed among the four quadrants and mostly in the middle and upper strata of the plant. B. formosa mites from leaflets of P. aquatica were separated for the study of the external mouthpart morphology by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).Keywords: Tydeoidae, gnathosoma, Eutetranychus banksi, biodiversity, ornamental plant.

O estudo foi realizado em 2012, em Jaboticabal, estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Foram selecionadas dez árvores de P. aquatica para realização do experimento. Cerca de 130 folíolos foram coletados de cada árvore localizados em diferentes quadrantes (norte, sul, leste e oeste) e estratos (superior, médio e inferior). Os folíolos foram colocados em sacos de papel e transportados para o laboratório. Os ácaros foram preparados em lâminas de microscopia óptica. No total foram encontradas onze espécies de ácaros, pertencentes a oito famílias. As espécies encontradas foram B. formosa, Eutetranychus banksi (McGregor), Agistemus sp., Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank, 1781), Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes), Brevipalpus sp., Cheletogenes sp., Iphiseiodes zuluagai Denmark & Muma, Euseius sp., Neoseiulus sp., e apenas um exemplar da família Bdellidae.

“…Occurrence of the mite community may vary with plant size and between different plant parts due to differing levels of solar incidence, wind, humidity, and other abiotic factors, which directly affect the acarofauna present on the crop (FERES et al, 2010). For example, mites from the family Tarsonemidae prefer the younger leaves at the top of the plant, whereas mites from the family Tetranychidae are found more commonly on the lower side of fully developed J. curcas leaves than on younger leaves (MORAES; FLECHTMANN, 2008;SARMENTO et al, 2011;ROSADO et al, 2014).…”

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the spatial-temporal distribution of phytophagous and predatory mites in the canopy of Jatropha curcas L. Mite richness, diversity, and abundance were determined, and higher values were observed primarily in the top stratum. Mite population in J. curcas was higher during the rainy season. Phytophagous mites were mostly concentrated in the top stratum, and Brevipalpus sp. was the most abundant. Predatory mites from the family Phytoseiidae presented the highest richness and diversity, and Amblydromalus zannoui was the most abundant species. The present results indicate seasonal population dynamics for both predatory and phytophagous mites on J. curcas.
