Mesostigmados (Acari: Mesostigmata) asociados con Dendroctonus rhizophagus de Chihuahua, México

Abstract

Dendroctonus rhizophagus Thomas y Bright (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) es una de las especies de mayor tamaño del género y es comúnmente llamada el descortezador de los renuevos. Es una especie común de la sierra Madre Occidental en México, que coloniza plántulas y árboles jóvenes menores de 3 m, de preferencia brinzales de 0.2-1.2 mm, donde realiza galerías en espiral que circundan al árbol y lo matan, debido a que no permiten el paso de agua y sustancias minerales (Estrada,

REVIEW OF MITES (ACARI) ASSOCIATED WITH THE EUROPEAN SPRUCE BARK BEETLE, <i>IPS TYPOGRAPHUS</i> (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE: SCOLYTINAE) IN ASIAN RUSSIA

“…3A,B,38A) This species is known from Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Turkmenistan (Mašán 2001), Sweden , Austria (Kofler and Schmölzer 2000); Poland (Gwiazdowicz and Gutowski 2012), Slovenia (Moraza et al 2013), Finland (Penttinen et al 2013), Spain (Fernández et al 2013), Switzerland, Turkey, Canada, USA (Knee et al 2013), Mexico (Chaires-Grijalva et al 2013), Bulgaria (Takov et al 2009) and Russia (Khaustov et al 2016). Deutonymphs of this species are phoretic on various bark beetles: Ips typographus (Čejka and Holuša 2014;Feketeová 2011;Fernández et al 2013;Gwiazdowicz and Gutowski 2012;Gwiazdowicz et al 2011;Knee et al 2013;Moser and Bogenschütz 1984;Penttinen et al 2013;Takov et al 2009;Vrabec et al 2012), Ips sexdentatus (Fernández et al 2013), Hylastes cunicularius (Kršlak et al 2010), Dryocoetes autographus, Hylurgors palliatus, Ips amitinus, I. cembrae, I. hauseri, I. pilifrons utahensis, I. woodi, I. montanus, I. perturbatus, I. hunteri, I. borealis, Pityogenes chalcographus (Khaustov et al 2016;Knee et al 2013), and Dendroctonus rhizophagus (Chaires-Grijalva et al 2013).…”

A Preliminary Report on Mites (Acari) Associated With the Small Spruce Bark Beetle Ips Amitinus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) in Western Siberia

“…This species is known from the Palaearctic (widely distributed in Europe; known from Algeria, Asian Russia and Japan), Nearctic (USA, Canada, Mexico) and the Neotropics (Guatemala) (Shcherbak 1980;Hirschmann and Wiśniewski 1982;Chaires-Grijalva et al 2013;Knee et al 2013;Khaustov et al 2018). These mites were found to be associated with many species of pine bark beetles, inhabiting various coniferous trees (Khaustov et al 2018).…”

Trophic habits of mesostigmatid mites associated with bark beetles in Mexico

“…The dietary habits of mites associated with bark beetles are not yet completely understood. Among mites inhabiting soil and other cryptic habitats, most studies suggested they are predators of arthropods and nematodes (Chaires-Grijalva et al, 2013).…”
