Abstract

The adult female and male of the phytoesiid mite, Euseius plumerii Abo-Shanf & Romeih sp. n. were collected from leaves of both White Frangipani (Plumeria alba) and Rose (Rosa hybrida cv. Huddly) at Giza Governorate, Egypt, then identified and described. Furthermore, the description of immature stages was also presented. The life history of this new species were documented on the two spotted-spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch movable stages which infested leaves of rose at three temperature degrees (20, 25 and 30±2 ºC) and relative humidity of 70±5%. The results proved that, 30ºC was the most suitable temperature degree which accelerated the life cycle, gave highly egg production and greatly prey consumption.
