The taxonomic portion of this paper discusses 27 species of mites of the family Phytoseiidae known to occur on plants in Madagascar.Eight new species are described: Phytoseius (Phytoseius) betsiboka. Ph. (Pennaseius) onilahy, Amblyseius (Amblyseius) hova, A. (A.) ankaratrae, A. (A.) boina, A. (A.) sakalava, A. (A.) trichophilus and A. (Proprioseiopsis) tulearensis.The following species are recorded for the first time from the island: Typhlodromus (Typhloseiopsis) contiguus Chant, 1959, Phyloseius (Phytoseius) crinitus Swirski & Shechter, 1961, Ph. (Ph.) intermedius Evans & Macfarlane, 1961, Ph. (Pennaseius) hongkongensis Swirski & Shechter, 1961, Ph. (P.)amba Pritchard & Baker, 1962, Iphiseius (Iphiseius) degenerans (Berlese, 1889), I. (Trochoseius) gongylus Pritchard & Baker, 1962, Paraphytoseius multidentatus Swirski & Shechter, 1961, Amblyseius (Amblyseius) hima Pritchard & Baker, 1962, A. (A.) deleoni Muma & Denmark, 1970, A. (Proprioseiopsis) sundi Pritchard & Baker, 1962 and A. (P.) peltatus Van der Merwe, 1968. Additional descriptions are given for most of these species. The male of P. multidentatus is described for the first time.New distribution records are presented for the following species: Typhlodromus scytinus Chazeau, 1970, the T. (Anthoseius) gutierrezi-chazeaui group, Amblyseius (Amblyseius) masiaka Blommers & Chazeau, 1974, A. (A.) bibens Blommers, 1973, A. (A.) rotundus Blommers, 1973, A. (A.) brevipes Blommers, 1973 and A. (A.) tamatavensis Blommers, 1974.The simultaneous occurrence of spider mites and other small arthropods on the plants on which the phytoseiids were collected is noted.A final chapter summarizes the results of experiments devised to see whether the collected phytoseiid mites can be effectively predators of spider mites, i.e. of Tetranychus neocaledonicus André, 1933 and sometimes Oligonychus coffeae (Nietner, 1861). Most of these results were negative. Only, Typhlodromus contiguus, Amblyseius tulearensis and A. sundi can regulate population numbers of the first prey species under circumstances of low webbing and/or additional food. Iphiseius degenerans, and possibly Amblyseius rotundus, can control Oligonychus coffeae in their area of distribution.

“…Phytoseius platypilis was later used as the type of the genus Platyseiella Muma (1961). Since 1960, 14 additional species have been described: Mexicanus by DeLeon (1960); hongkongensis, crinitus, coheni, brevicrinis, rachelae, bambusae, and taiyushani by Sbvirski and Schechter (1961); floridanus by Muma (1962); nipporzicus by Ehara (1962); decoratus by GonzSlez and Schuster (1962); m b a , yira, and ferox by Pritchard and Baker (1962); and intemedius by Evans and Macfarlane (1961). Wainstein (1959) divided the genus in two subgenera: Phytoseius s. str.…”

“…and Dubininellus as generic rank. Evans and Macfarlane (1961) showed that one of the characters thought to separate the two subgenera was not constant but they retained subgeneric separation on the basis of the presence or absence of the second pair of sublateral setae. I agree with them.…”

Mites of the genus Phytoseius Ribaga largely inhabit plants and are at least partly predacious, feeding on tetranychid, eriophyid, and other mites. They probably also feed on pollen, honeydew, and plant juices, as do other phytoseiids that have been studied (Chant 1959; Dosse 1961; McMurty and Scriven 1964). They are not usually found in soil or humus but occur on many kinds of low growing plants as well as coniferous and deciduous trees. They have been collected on all continents and from the arctic to the tropics.
