Abstract

In this updated version some new and basic information has been added to Chapter 1 in order to provide the reader with some biological background about mites: their place in the animal kingdom, their classification, and characteristics of these very small animals. In addition the list of currently known, economically important mites has been updated. Since the use of predatory mites in integrated pest management is becoming increasingly important, some commercially available predatory mites are briefly described. Chapter 2 has been expanded with further information on the chemical properties of the compounds, e.g. their environmental stability, or lability, as an aid to better understanding their behavior in the environment. Chapter 3 has been supplemented with ecological data on various avian and aquatic species.
