“…It was first reported and described by Hirst (1924) based on specimens taken from coconut plants grown in Tamil Nadu, India. Since then, R. indica has been found infesting palms in many countries in Asia and Africa, such as Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran, Sudan, and the Philippines (Kane & Ochoa, 2006).…”

“…RPM causes damage to a wide variety of hosts in the orders Arecales and Zingiberales (Cocco and Hoy 2009), which were previously unreported as hosts prior to its introduction. The mite was first described in the Old World, from Coimbatore, India in the early part of last century (Hirst 1924) and has now been widely reported on areca nut (Areca catechu L.) and coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) in India. Other host plants reported prior to its introduction into the New World are the Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) (Sayed 1942) and the Hurricane Palm (Dictyosperma album (Bory) H.A.…”

Within-season dynamics of red palm mite (Raoiella indica) and phytoseiid predators on two host palm species in south-west India

et al. 2011

Field surveys were conducted monthly between December 2008 and July 2009 in Kerala, south-west India to compare the population dynamics of the red palm mite Raoiella indica (RPM) on two host plants Areca catechu and Cocos nucifera during one non-monsoon season when, in general, RPM populations increase. The aim was to examine the effects of host plant, host plant locality and the impact of climatic factors on RPM and related phytoseiid predators. There were significantly higher RPM densities on areca in peak season (May/June) compared to coconut; although significantly more coconut sites were infested with RPM than areca. Although no one climatic factor was significantly related to RPM numbers, interactions were found between temperature, humidity and rainfall and the partitioning of host plant locality showed that where conditions were warmer and drier, RPM densities were significantly higher. Specifically on coconut, there was a significant relation between RPM densities and the combined interaction between site temperature, site humidity and phytoseiid densities. There was a marked difference in the density of phytoseiids collected between areca and coconut palms, with significantly more on the latter, in several months. Amblyseius largoensis was the most commonly collected phytoseiid in association with RPM, although Amblyseius tamatavensis species group and Amblyseius largoensis species group were collected in association with RPM also. There was also evidence of a weak numerical response of the combined phytoseiid complex in relation to RPM density the previous month on coconut but this was not observed on areca.

“…It was described from India infesting coconut palms (Cocos nucifera) (Hirst 1924) and was later reported in northeast Africa (Pritchard & Baker 1958), southern Africa (Moutia 1958), and the Middle East (Gerson et al 1983). Main host plants in these areas are coconut and date palm (Phoenix dactylifera) (Hirst 1924, Gerson et al 1983.…”

The presence of the red palm mite, Raoiella indica Hirst, is reported for the first time in Brazil. This invasive mite was found in July 2009 infesting coconut palms and bananas in urban areas of Boa Vista, State of Roraima, in northern Brazil. Comments on the possible pathways of R. indica into the country, present and potential impact of its introduction and mitigating measures to prevent or to delay the mite spread in Brazil are presented.
