Abstract

Euseius pariyarensis (Santhosh, 2018) is a predatory mite, found associated with the pest mite, Tetranychus neocaledonicus (Andre, 1933) which infest the leaves of Bauhinia acuminate L. To study the feeding potential, tests were carried out in the laboratory under 30+2oC, 65±10%RH conditions. Promising results were obtained and the following observations were made regarding its feeding activities. Maximum consumption of eggs of prey mite was exhibited by adult females. The mean consumption rate of predators followed the order that female > male > deutonymph > protonymph >larva, respectively.
