Abstract

Laboratory bioassay of the two  entomopathogenic fungi  Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff)  Sorokin  and Beauveria bassiana  (Balsamo) Vuillemin (Ascomycota:  Hypocreales) against Bryobia cristata  (Duges)  (Acari: Tetranychidae) adults was evaluated.  M anisopliae had higher activity and rapid mortality against mite adults. The correspondent LC50  for M. anisopliae and B. bassiana was 1.82xl06 and 2.98xl06  spores/ml, respectively. The LT50  at dosage 108  spores/ml of M. anisopliae and B. bassiana was 2.2 and 4.08 days, respectively.
