Abstract

In a field survey, 16 eriophyoid mite species were collected from eight species
of fruit trees, among which two species were found to be new record to Egypt. They
were Tegolophus guavae (Boczek, 1960) on Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae) which
causes rust on leaves, and Aceria ziziphi Mohanasundaram, 1990, vagrant without
damage on Ziziphus spina-christi Willd (Rhamnaceae). These species were
redescribed and illustrated from local material. A total of 65 eriophyoid mite species
in superfamily Eriophyoidea has been recorded in Egypt due to literature. These
species belong to three families, seven sub families, seven tribes and 27 genera. A list
of these species has been constructed and presented herein.
