| Abstract | Eriophyid mite is very small and cannot be seen by naked eyes. The symptomof plant damaged by many species of eriophyid mite is similar to the symptom of plantpathogens. Hence, farmers tended to use improper pesticides to control eriophyid mite.Moreover, several eriophyid mites are known as vectors of plant pathogen and severalspecies are reported in the plant quarantine list of Thailand. The purpose of this studywas to survey the importance eriophyid mites and their distribution in Thailand. Survey oferiophyoid mite pests was conducted from 37 districts from 28 provinces across Thailandduring October 2013-September 2015. All specimens were mounted in modified Berlese?smedium and observed under the semi-motorized fluorescence microscope. The resultsrevealed that there were 12 species of Eriophyid mite pests viz. Aceria aloinis (Keifer),Aceria litchii (Keifer), Aceria longana Boczek & Knihinicki, Aceria neopaederiaeKonvipasruang, et al., Aceria sandorici Nalepa, Aceria tulipae (Keifer), Abacarus pennatusChandrapatya, Aculops caricae Keifer, Acalitus simplex Flechtmann & Etienne, Colomerusnovahebridensis Keifer, Phyllocoptes azadirachtae Chandrapatya and Phyllocoptrutaoleivora (Ashmead). The important eriophyoid mites that caused damage to economiccrops were as follows: A. longana caused witches?s broom on longan and the outbreakoccurred throughout the longan orchard. Phyllocoptruta oleivora (Ashmead) causedrusseting of leaf and fruits of citrus plants, whilst A. litchii caused erineum of litchi leaf.In garlic, A. tulipae is a key pest caused leaf curl symptom in the field and desiccationof bulb after harvest. Additionally, A. simplex and A. aloinis werefound as a new recordmite of Thailand. Another important eriophyid mite damaging on coconut was C. novahebridensis whereas Aceria guerreronis Keifer that transmitting the Cadang Candang disease on coconut was not found. This is the important information that can be used for international trading since the country that has the record of A. guerreronis. |
