Abstract: The occurrence of the Asiatic mite Stigmaeopsis nanjingensis (Ma et Yuan) (Acari Tetranychidae) in Europe (Italy) is here reported. The mites live on the underside of bamboo leaves (Phyllostachys sp. and Pseudosasa sp.), protected under web nests, and are recognizable by the presence of whitish spots on the upper side of leaves.
