The mites of the family Phytoseiidae have received worldwide attention because of their importance in biological control of mite and some of the soft-bodied insect pests of various crops. This is probably the most explored and exploited among all the predatory mites. In view of their importance, these mites have also been explored in India, from where many new species have been described since 1960. Apart from these, some work has also been carried out in India on their bioecology, predator–prey interactions, and the effects of pesticides on these mites, which have been reviewed in Gupta (2003a).Full Text

The Orchids are important plants not only because they have export potentiality and thus help in earning foreign exchange but also because of the fact that some of those have high medicinal values. On the other hand, lichens are also having economic value as well as are sources of medicines and pollution indicators.Full Text

The mites of the family Phytoseiidae have received worldwide attention because of their importance in biological control of not only mite pests but also of some of the soft-bodied insects attacking various crops. This is probably the most explored and exploited among all the predatory mites.

Since the ancient time India is famous for having rich collection of plants used as spices and hence India has a good export market of these plants. The states in India, which are known to grow spices in large quantities and contribute a major share in the export market are Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, West Bengal, Sikkim and Madhya Pradesh. Spices like black pepper, cardamom, zinger, garlic, turmeric, chili, cumin, etc. are grown in large quantities in Southern States.Full Text

The present paper reports the occurrence of 120 species of mites, including both phytophagous and predatory groups, under 44 genera and 15 families infesting 158 species of medicinal plants from South Bengal, India. This communication provides the collection data, host/habitat records, economic importance, if any, and keys to various taxonomic categories. This includes 9 species, all under Tenuipalpidae, 2 species under Phytoseiidae, 3 species under Cunaxidae and 1 genus under Tetranychidae which are being reported here for the ô€irst time from India. A host-mite catalogue is also appended.Keywords
