Amblyseius womersleyi, Metaseiulus occidentalis, A. fallacis, Typhlodromus pyri와 A. andersoni 등 5종 이리응애 성충 암컷의 귤응애와 귤녹응애에 대한 포식을 시험하였다. 귤응애의 난을 먹이로 제공했을 때 포식수와 산란 수는 A. womersteyi (13.3, 3.5)가 T. pyri(12.0, 3.13), A. fallacis (10.3, 2.63), A. andersoni(7.8, 2.0)와 M. occidentalis (5.9, 2.0)보다 맡았다. 생존시간은 A. fallacis (169)와 M. occidentalis (182)가 A. andersoni(193), A. wamersleyi(202)와 T. pyri (252)에 비하여 짧았다. 귤응애의 약.성충을 먹이로 했을 때 5종 이리응애의 포식수에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 산란수는 A. womersteyi (3.27)가 T. pyri (2.8), A. fatlacis (2.33), M. occidentalis (1.85)와 A. andersoni (1.75)의 경우보다 맡았다. 생존시간은 M. occidentatis (130)가 A. womersteyi(151), A. andersoni (152), A. fallacis (159)와 T. pyri(214)에 비해 짧았다. 귤녹응애의 약.성충에 대한 포식수는 A. womersleyi (32.5)가 A. fallacis (28.3), T. pyri (26.6), A. andersoni(24.8)와 M. occidentalis(16.7)보다 많았다. 이러한 결과로 보아 귤응애와 귤녹응애의 생물적 방제에는 A. womersteyi가 T. pyri, M. occidentatis, A. fallacis와 A. andersoni보다 더 효율적일 것으로 사료된다.
The predation of adult females of Amblyseius womersteyi, Metaseiutus occidentatis, A. fallacis, Typhlodromus pyri and A. andersoni on Panonychus citri and Aculops pelekassi was evaluated. With the eggs of P. citri as prey, the prey consumption and number of eggs laid of A. womersleyi (13.3, 3.5) were more than those of T. pyri (12.0, 3.13), A. fallacis (10.3, 2.63), A. andersoni (7.8, 2.0) and M. occidentatis (5.9, 2.0). The survival times of A. fallacis (169) and M. occidentalis (182) Were Shorter than those of A. andersoni (193), A. womersleyi (202) and T. pyri (252). With the nymphs and adults of P. citri as prey, the prey consumptions of phytoseiid mites were not significantly different among them. The number of eggs laid of A. womerslepi (3.27) was more than that of T. pyri (2.8), A. fallacis (2.33), M. occidentalis (1.85) and A. andersoni (1.75). The survival time of M. occidentalis (130) was shorter than that of A. womersteyi (151), A. andersoni (152), A. fallacis (159) and T. pyri (214). With the nymphs and adults of A. pelekassi as prey, the prey consumption of A. womersleyi (32.5) was more than that of A. faltacis (28.3), T. pyri (26.6), A. andersoni (24.8) and M. occidentalis (16.7). The results suggest that A. womersleyi could be potentially more efficient in biological control of P. citri and A. pelekassi than T. pyri, M. occidentalis, A. fallacis and A. andersoni.
