Abstract

In laboratory tests, Amblyseius ovalls (Evans) at 1:25, 1:50 and 1:100 predator-prey ratios eliminated Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks) on 9th, 12th and 17th day respectively, but could not check the muItiplication or prey at 1:I50 ratio.

Abstract

Biology of Amblyseius iongispinosus (Evans) and its feeding efficiency has been reponed on tetranychid mites (Mallik. 1974; Mallik and ChannaBasavanna 1983). However, information on its biology and feeding potential on chilli mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus (Banks) is not available, and so experiments were conducted under laboratory conditions to study these parameters.

Keywords
