Abstract
A total of 55 species of phytoseiid mites are reported from Latin America. New records of phytoseiid mites mostly from cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) habitat in southern Mexico, and Central and South America are given. Nine species are described as new to science: Amblyseius neoperditus, A. vasiformis, A. curticervicalis, A. gonzalezi, A. pentagonalis, A. peruvianus, A. farallonicus, A. miconiae and Phytoseius curtisetus.Keywords
