    • Population dynamics of<i> Floracarus perrepae </i>and a predatory mite in a screenhouse environment

    Metadata Updated: June 5, 2025

    This research investigated observations of an increase in a predatory mite within galls for a screenhouse mass rearing colony. The survey consisted of counted the galls on 5 haphazardly selected plants and then dissecting 5 galls for each plant. The number of Floracarus perrepae biological control mites and the number of predatory mites were recorded for each gall. The survey was intended to run a full early starting 9/29/2021, but it concluded early in July 2022 when the screenhouse became too hot for a colony to be maintained there. Predatory mite presence is correlated with a reduction in F. perrepae numbers. Sequenced samples of predatory mite from the colony and indicated that the predatory mite is Amblyseius rematavensis.Partially funded by the USDA through the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP) (USDA agreement 58-6032-1-001), through the Southwest Florida Water Management District (USDA agreement 58-6032-3-003).
