In: Egyptian journal of biological pest control 2006.v.16(1,2)Summary: Neoucunaxoides fayoumi sp. n. (Cunaxidae) immature stages were described and all the biological aspects were studied. Immatures of each of Tyrophagous putrescentiae (Schrank), Rizoglyphus Claparede; Oligonychus mangiferus (Rahmab & Sapra) and Cenopalpus pulcher C. & F.; eggs and imrnatures of Tetj'anychus urticae Koch; adults of Cisaberoptus kenyae Keifer; egg-masses of Melidogyne incognita Chitwood and Lepidocertinus inc ertus Handschin eggs and immatures were used for rearing N. fayoumi. at three temperature degrees (20, 25 and 30°C) and 70% R. H. T. putrescentiae immatures were being the most favorable preys giving the shortest life cycle, prolonged longevity, greatest fem lie fecundity and biggest number of prey consumption (16 days, 76.75 days. 55.55 eggs/female and 761.16 individuals); respectivel;', than other preys tested. The predator N. fayoumi sp. n. failed to feed or complete its development, when fed on immatures of R. robini; eggs of T. urticae and adults of C. kenyae and both eggs and immatures of L incertus.
