English : Abundance of Predaceous Mites And Spiders Associated With Grapevine In Fayoum Region, Egypt, Egypt.
Abstract Survey of predacious mites and spiders associated with different grapevine pests were carried out in two different regions of Fayoum Governorate, Egypt in two seasons (from April to September 2007 and 2008) to determine prospective species for the control of the pest. The obtained data indicated the presence of six predatory mite species on leaves, four of them were belonging to sub-order Prostigmata and two species only belonging to sub-order Mesostigmata. The most abundance of the mites species were; Pronematus ubiquitous (Tydeidae) and Euseius scutalis (Phytoseiidae). The period of June–August was the most favorable for abundance of the collected mites. The collected spiders associated with pest infesting grapevine leaves, were 14 species belonging to 13 families. The dominant spiders were recorded Erigone dentipalpus (Linyphiidae), Tetragnathus nitens (Tetrgnathidae), Plexippus paykulli (Salticidae), Thomisus spinifer (Thomisidae), Theridion aegyptiacum (Theridiidae) and Thanatus albini (Philodromidae). While, nine predacious mites inhabiting grapevine soil under 6 families namely; Cunaxidae, Camerobiidae, Bdellidae, Tydeidae, Stigameidae and Cheyletidae. The most common species were Cunaxa capreolus (Berlese) (Cunaxidae) and Cheyletus. eruditus (Schrank) (Cheyletidae). On the other hand, the mesostigmatid mites inhabiting grapevine soil were; Androlaelaps casalis (Berlese) (Laelapidae), Baltiscoius tarsalis (Berlese) (Ascidae), Urobovilla krantzi Zaher and Afifi (Uropodidae) and Parasitus consanguinus Oudemans and Voigits (Parasitidae). However, A. casalis and U. krantzi were the most abundant mites. Considering the spider inhabiting soil of grapevine plants, it was noticed that the presence of three non-identified species, Hogna sp. (Lycosidae), Oecobius sp. (Oecobiidae) and Zelotes sp; (Gnaphosidae). All collected spiders were recorded in the period (May-August).
