Abstract

Due to the importance of predaceous mites, this work was carried out to survey Raphigmathoid mite species inhabiting fruit trees and debris and associating with scale insects in different localities of Delta and Middle Egypt. In addition, the biology, prey range and its effect on feeding capacity and fecundity of the two prevalent species Eupalopsellus olearius Zaher and Gomaa and Saniosulus nudus  Summers (Eupalopsellidae: Acari)  were studied. This however might throw light on their role in biological control of associated scale insects.
