Abstract
Mites of the family Phytoseiidae, most of which are at least partially predacious, have received considerable attention from fruit entomologists since Parrott et al. (1906, pp. 302-303) stated that they feed extensively on phytophagous mites. This has resulted in much interest in the taxonomic status of Phytoseiidae and several papers on this subject have appeared in recent years.Keywords
