Acarologia 46 (1-2), 5-13
Abstract: We report the results of a survey of phytoseiid mites carried out in 2000 and 2001 in some perennial crops and the surrounding wild vegetation, mainly in date palm production areas. Twelve species were found, among which 4 are new for Tunisia and one genus and one species are new to Science.
