Morphological, molecular and crossbreeding analysis of geographic populations of coconutmite associated predatory mites identified as Neoseiulus baraki: evidence for cryptic species?
Surveys were conducted in Brazil, Benin and Tanzania to collect predatory mites as candidates for control of the coconut mite Aceria guerreronis Keifer, a serious pest of coconut fruits. At all locations surveyed, one of the most dominant predators on infested coconut fruits was identified as Neosei...
