Abstract

In laboratory studies, individuals ofEuseius stipulatus Athias-Henriot,Typhlodromus rickeri Chant,T. porresi McMurtry andT. annectens DeLeon offered broad mite,Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks), as prey had developmental and ovipositional rates comparable to those offered a known favorable food (tetranychid mites or pollen).Euseius hibisci (Chant) had a longer developmental period and a markedly lower oviposition rate onP. latus than on the control food. Immature survival and ovipositional rates ofEuseius concordis Chant,Typhlodromus occidentalis Nesbitt,Amblyseius limonicus Garman and McGregor andIphiseius degenerans (Berlese) were very low onP. latus compared to control foods.
