| Abstract | A number of pests have played a vital role on the cassava crops in Thailand. Mitepest is considered one of the potential pests on cassava in several areas of the country,not only causing damage as well as yield loss but also resulting in the product quality.The distribution survey of mite pest species on cassava in Thailand is, therefore, needed.The survey was conducted in 76 districts, 38 provinces during October 2012-September2016. The result revealed that 13 species of 2 families were found. The familyTetranychidae contains 11 species including EuTetranychus africanus (Tucker),NeoTetranychus sp., Oligonychus biharensis (Hirst), Oligonychus sp., Tetranychus kanzawaiKishida, Tetranychus marianae McGregor, Tetranychus piercei McGregor, Tetranychustruncatus Ehara, Tetranychus urticae Koch, Tetranychus sp. and more importantly, onenew species identified as Neotetranychus lek Flechtmann was found. The Tenuipalpidaeconsists of 2 species including Brevipalpus californicus (Banks).) and Brevipalpus phoenicis(Geijskes). T. truncatus and O. biharensis are considered the most important mite pests,both of which found throughout the year. T. truncatus, typically, causes damage underthe leaf surface, whereas, O. biharensis damage upper the leaf surface. |
