Abstract
The predatory mite Phytoseiulus macropillis (Bank) was fed on eggs, nymphs and adult stages of Tetranychus urticae Koch and Tetranychus cucurbitacearum (Sayed). Prey spider mites were collected from growing cucumber plants in plastic tunnels in Nubaria provinces during summer of 2003 and 2004. Reproduction rates were almost similar on both of T. urticae and T. cucurbitacearum, however feeding on nymph stages of either of the prey species resulted in the lower ones.
