Abstract

A study was undertaken during a period extended from January 2020 – December 2021 at two distraicts, El-Arish and Beer El-Abd in North Sinai Governorate, Egypt to record the mites associated with ten insects under 10 genera, 7 families, and three orders, e.g. Coleoptera, Lepidoptera and Hemiptera were sampled for the identification of the associated mite species. The results revealed 36 species of mites under 26 genera, 15 families and 2 orders, collected from 10 species of insects under 10 genera, 7 families and 3 orders. Mite family Acaridae was represented by maximum number of species/genera (6/5) followed by 7 families, Ascidae, Macrochelidae, Rhodacaridae, Varroidae, Siteroptidae, Pyemotidae, and Lardoglyphidae were represented by single species each. Of the 36 species of the collected mites 9 species under 6 genera, the weevil Sitophilus oryzae (L.) from which the mites collected, belonged to order Coleoptera harboured the maximum number of mite species, while single mite species Glycyphagous domesticus (De Geer) was collected from the weevil Bruchusru fimanus Boheman belonged to order Coleoptera.
