【 摘 要 】

Functional response of Phytoseiulus persimilis (Athias-Henriot, 1957) at different densities and developmental stages of the mite of Oligonychus punicae (Hirst, 1926) under laboratory conditions was evaluated. Results show no predation in the egg state, whereas for the other stages, the predator exhibited a type II functional response. Average consumption of P. persimilis over O. punicae was 23.4 and 14.67 for larvae and nymphs respectively at a density of 64 prey offered, while the maximum average consumption in adult females of O. punicae was 6.07 adults at a density of 16 female adults offered. The results of predation obtained, concluded that P. persimilis can be used as a biocontrol agent.
