Predators associated to Panonychus citri McGregor (Acari: Tetranychidae) in the central coast of Peru. Ecologia aplicada, 61 (1-2): 117-129.

Abstract
In the central coast of Peru, fifteen predators associated to Panonychus citri were identified: Amblyseius chungas Denmark & Muma, Phytoseiulus persimilis Athias-Henriot, Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor), Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) evectus (Schuster), Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) transvaalensis (Nesbitt), Typhlodromina subtropica Muma & Denmark, Mexecheles sp., Cheletogenes sp. and Armascirus sp. Stethorus tridens Gordon, Stethorus histrio Chazeau, Oligota sp., Chrysoperla externa Hagen, Ceraeochrysa cincta Schneider and Aeolothrips sp. were the acarophagous insects found. Most abundant species were: A. chungas, T.(A.) evectus and N. californicus. Furthermore, both Stethorus tridens and Stethorus histrio were frequent in fields where predator mites were absent.
