| Abstract | ||
| Phytophagous mites and their natural enemies associated with the date palm trees, Phoenix dactylifera L. in two environmental localities (Gamassa village, Dakahleya Governorate and El-Kharga village, New Valley Governorate) were studied from April 2016 to March 2017. Correlation between population density of studied mites and weather factors (minimum and maximum temperature) at both Governorates over the year was reported. The survey revealed the presence of 13 species of 11 genera belonging to nine families in Gamassa village, while mites of El-Kharga village were two mite species belonging to two families and three species of predators of low populations. | ||
