Effect of different prey species on the development and fecundity of the predacious mite, Amblyseius gossipi (Acarina: Phytoseiidae)
(1968)Under laboratory conditions of approximately 26.5–28.5° and 60–70% RH, the immature stages of the female Amblyseius gossipi Elbadry were completed in 2.9, 3.5 and 4.1 days when developed on Oligonychus mangiferus (R. & ... -
Effectiveness of the predacious mite, Amblyseius gossipi as a predator of three tetranychid miets (Acarina: Phytoseiidae)
(1968)Test mites of Amblyseius gossipi Elbadry were confined to broad bean leaves in the laboratory at 26.5–28.5 C°. Adults A. gossipi fed readily on both adults and immatures of the spider mites Oligonychus mangiferus (R. & P.) ... -
The effect of pollen feeding on the predatory efficiency of Amblyseius gossipi (Acarina: Phytoseiidae)
(1968)A positive correlation between rate of prey consumption by A. gossipi and the prey density T. cinnabarinus was found at presence or absence of pollen of Zea mays. Pollen had no effect on prey consumption at prey concentrations ... -

Effect of avermectin and dicofol on the immatures of the predacious miteAmblyseius gossipi with a special reference to the secondary poisoning effect on the adult female [Acari: Phytoseiidae]
(1988)Avermectin at 1 ppm was slightly toxic by contact to the different immature stages of the predacious miteAmblyseius gossipi El-Badry. When immatures ofA. gossipi ingested treated prey on clean leaf discs, the toxicity ... -
Residual toxicity of some common acaricides in Brazil to the predacious mite, Amblyseius brazilli
(1976)The direct toxicity of 5 common acaricides toAmblyseius brazilli El-Banhawy was tested. Omethoate proved to be the most toxic and Chlorobenzilate the least toxic. LC50 were 1.2ppm, 220ppm, 720ppm and 1250ppm for Omethoate, ... -

Growth inhibition of the predacious mite, Amblyseius brazilli by a synthetic juvenile hormone under laboratory conditions
(1977)The predacious miteAmblyseius brazilli El-Banhawy was exposed to the synthetic juvenile hormone methoprene to see the biological differences resulting from the application of the compound and its toxicity. Methoprene was ... -

A new genus in the subfamily Nothopodinae with description of four new species from East Africa (Acari : Eriophyoidea : Eriophyidae)
(1992)A new genus and four new species are described. Neofloracarus guajavae gen. et sp. nov. and Phyllocoptes lantanae sp. nov. were found on guavas and Lantana camara, resp., in Kenya, and Aculus didymbotryae sp. nov. and ...
