TL;DR: This review categorizes the diversity of life-styles in the Phytoseiidae, based primarily on food habits and related biological and morphological traits, into three types: specialized predators of Tetranychus species, selective predators of tetranychid mites, and specialized pollen feeders/generalist predators.
Abstract: This review categorizes the diversity of life-styles in the Phytoseiidae, based primarily on food habits and related biological and morphological traits. The life-styles proposed are as follows: Type I, specialized predators of Tetranychus species represented by the Phytoseiulus species; Type II, selective predators of tetranychid mites (most frequently associated with species that produce dense webbing) represented by Galendromus, some Neoseiulus, and a few Typhlodromus species; Type III, generalist predators represented by some Neoseiulus species and most Typhlodromus and Amblyseius species, as well as species in all other genera about which information is available; Type IV, specialized pollen feeders/generalist predators represented by Euseius species. Consideration is given to the relative importance of each of these types in biological control and pest management programs.

TL;DR: This updated catalog of Moraes et al. (1986) includes references to descriptions and redescriptions of species, synonymies and recorded world distributions of mite pests.
Abstract: Mites of the family Phytoseiidae are the most common predators of phytophagous mites on most plant species. Some species are widely studied and used for the biological control of mite pests. Many new species continue to be discovered as collections are intensified in certain regions or habitats, e.g. in Africa, Asia, Central and South America. The last catalog of Moraes et al. (1986) included about 1500 described species. This updated catalog includes almost 2250 species. As in the last catalog, it includes references to descriptions and redescriptions of species, synonymies and recorded world distributions.

TL;DR: The determination of setal homologies and setal platterns on the dorsal shield in the family phytoseidae (Acarina: Mesostigmata) is determined.
Abstract: The chaetotactic nomenclature proposed by Lindquist and Evans (1965) for the Gamasina, using the family Ascidae as examplar, is adopted for use in the family Phytoseiidae. Probable setal homologies were determined by: examining and comparing ontogenetic relationships in both the Phytoseiidae and Ascidae; standardizing the shape and size of the dorsal shield of exemplars from 7 genera of Phytoseiidae and one of Ascidae in order to compare standardized, transformed setal positions; examining the spatial relationships between setal and pore positions. The technique used to standardize the shape and size of the dorsal shield is described. The setal nomenclature adopted for each of the genera of Phytoseiidae is discussed and presented in diagrammatic form. Ventral chaetotaxy in the Ascidae and Phytoseiidae is also discussed.

TL;DR: 43 species of phytoseiids on native and exotic palm plants (Arecaceae) in areas of the States of São Paulo and Pernambuco, Brazil are reported, with the most frequent species in the wild belonged to Amblyseius and Typhlodromips, while the mostrequent in altered areas belonged to the genera AmblySEius, Euseius and Iphiseiodes.
Abstract: This work reports 43 species of phytoseiids on native and exotic palm plants (Arecaceae) in areas of the States of Sao Paulo and Pernambuco, Brazil. The survey was done on 24 native and 14 exotic species of palm trees. Ten new species of phytoseiid mites are described: Amblyseius euterpe n. sp., Amblyseius geonomae n. sp., Amblyseius igarassuensis n. sp., Iphiseiodes setillus n. sp., Neoseiulus recifensis n. sp., Neoseiulus veigai n. sp., Paraamblyseius multicircularis n. sp., Typhlodromips ariri n. sp., Typhlodromips cananeiensis n. sp. and Typhlodromips jucara n. sp. The most frequent species in the wild belonged to Amblyseius and Typhlodromips, while the most frequent in altered areas belonged to the genera Amblyseius, Euseius and Iphiseiodes.
