Presence-absence sampling for Tetranychus urticae and its predator Neoseiulus californicus (Acari: Tetranychidae; Phytoseiidae) on strawberries
We propose a systematic presence-absence sampling plan for estimating densities of both Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) and its predator Neoseiulus californicus (McGregor) (Acari: Phytoseiidae) on strawberries. It is based on the synchrony and spatial coincidence between prey and pre...
