Abstract

With the objective of determining the predatory mites present in the Arecaceae family in the City of Baracoa, a study was carried out between December 2021 and April 2022. The data was taken in all the arteries (streets) that comprise the City. A total of 155 samplings were carried out on 5 species of plants, belonging to the Arecaceae family. 5 plants were selected by sampling and from each of them five leaflets were extracted from the middle part of the lower leaves. A high percentage of predatory mites was traced, which allowed the identification of the Phytoseidae family as one of the most frequent for the Arecaceae family, with a total of 9 host plants, where the highest percentage of representation is in Adonodia merrillii with 97, 13 % and the list of predatory mites present in the Arecaceae family was updated.
