Abstract
Various mite species such as predators, fungivores and parasites associated with insect species inhabiting stored maize grains were surveyed from 14 untreated stores maize located from different sites at Giza governorate during the two successive years 2016 and 2017. These mites feed on stored materials, fungus or being predators or parasites of store maize insects, so that they considered to be one of the most biological control agent for their associated insect and mite pests. Twenty one mite species belong to ten families and 14 genera in four suborderswere collected. Suborder Astigmata contains eight different species belonging to four genera in two families, suborder Prostigmatarepresented by six different species belonging to four genera in four families. In addition,six different species belonging to five genera in three different families in suborder Mesostigmata. Finally, suborder Cryptostigmata had one family Orbatulidae included one species. While the insects were recorded five families with six species in order Coleoptera.
