AbstractThe relative densities of phytophagous and predacious mites within mature apple trees were examined. The eggs of phytophagous mites Aculus schlechtendali (Nal.) and Panonychus ulmi (Koch) were more numerous in the lower position of the tree while the reverse was true for the predacious mite Zetzellia mali (Ewing) and its eggs.

The following is a description of a new species of predacious mite of the subfamily Phytoseiinae. It is found in orchards in Nova Scotia on the bark of apple trees, but in no instance has it been taken from the foliage. This species is similar in structure to Typhlodromus tiliae Oudmus. (Nesbitt, 1951), but its habits differ. In this paper the differences between T. tiliae and the species herein described are noted and details of a laboratory study of the life-histories and food habits of these species are given.

AbstractThe proportion of fruiting to non-fruiting clusters on apple trees influences the distribution of predators within and between trees. The mirids Atractotomus mali (Meyer), Campylomma verbasci (Meyer), Hyaliodes harti Knight, Diaphnocoris pellucida (Uhler), Pilophorus perplexus Douglas and Scott, and the anthocorid Anthocoris musculus (Say) all showed greater preference for limbs (or trees) bearing a high proportion (or percentage) of fruiting clusters. The predacious mite Anystis agilis Banks exhibited no preference.
