    Notes: Abstract Residual deposits of fluvalinate caused two-spotted spider mite,Tetranychus urticae Koch, dispersal by running off (run-off) and spinning down (spin-down) from treated leaves. Run-off occured at concentrations from 0.0005 g a.i. 1−1 and reached a peak at 0.01 g a.i. 1−1. Spin-down was more predominant at concentrations above 0.01 g a.i. 1−1. Spin-down and run-off proportions varied with fluvalinate formulation. Oviposition was temporarily suppressed on fluvalinate-treated leaves, presumably because of an irritant effect which reduced feeding. An emulsifiable concentrate formulation caused the largest reductions in oviposition. Oviposition returned to the level exhibited by untreated mites two days after removal from treated surfaces. Oviposition and feeding were positively correlated and both declined reciprocally with increasing fluvalinate concentration.

    Notes: Abstract Factors inducing outbreaks of spider mites (Acari: Tetranychidae) following use of pyrethroid insecticides are reviewed. Differentials in direct toxicity between spider mites and phytoseiid (Acari: Phytoseiidae) predators provide one explanation. Wide variation exists between pyrethroids in their direct toxicity toTetranychus urticae. The acaricidal action of pyrethroids is largely controlled by the amount of irritancy or repellency induced by the respective chemicals. Laboratory assays for repellency reflect field results. Repellent activity induces spider-mite dispersal to either recolonise plants free of residues or leave the treated habitat. Pyrethroids may also affect reproduction and development rates. Residual activity is likely to vary, so limiting any general theory of spider-mite responses to pyrethroids. Variable responses to pyrethroids, strain variation and development of behavioural resistance also add complications to understanding outbreaks. Future research needs are identified.

    Notes: Abstract Six different bioassay methods were evaluated using propargite (Omite 30% wettable powder (WP) and fenbutatin oxide (Torque 50% (WP) and 55% suspension concentrate (SC)) with twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus uriticae Koch (TSM) and European red mite, Panonychus ulmi Koch (ERM) to document their utility and precision for estimating median lethal concentrations (LC). For each method, two post-treatment exposure periods and mortality criteria were used. Post-treatment exposure period and mortality criterion had a significant influence on the precision of LC50 estimates for all tested miticides with all bioassays methods. Twenty four hour (h) post-treatment exposure was found to be the most suitable for the slide dip and Petri dish methods while 48h was the most appropriate for leaf disc methods. Scoring moribund mites as dead was the most satisfactory criterion for ensuring that biossays were as simple and precise as possible. The Petri dish residue-Potter tower method (PDR-PT) estimated the responses of TSM and ERM to propargite with high precision. The same method was not as precise for fenbutatin oxide formulations. Because significant mite run-off occurred with the leaf disc methods, their precision was not fully established. The slide dip method gave less precise estimates of LC50 values for propargite (WP) and fenbutatin oxide (WP), while the same method gave more precise LC50 estimates for fenbutatin oxide (SC) than the PDR-PT method. The toxicity of candidate miticides was found to be method-and species-dependent.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La punaise,Nabis kinbergii Reuter est rencontrée communément dans les champs de luzerne à la fin de l'été et durant l'automne en Nouvelle Zélande. Son potentiel en tant que prédateur des espèces communes d'insectes ravageurs n'a pas encore été étudié. Ce travail rend compte de la roponse fonctionnelle des femelles adultes et des 5e stades larvaires de cette punaise vis-à-vis de deux espèces proies, le miride:Sidnia kinbergi (Stal) et le puceron du pois:Acyrtosiphon pisum (Harris). Une équation deHolling (1959) de type II définit bien la réponse fonctionnelle de ce prédateur sauf lorsque les 5e stades n'ont que des nymphes du Miride pour proie. Cette punaise,Nabis kinbergii manifeste des réponses identiques à celles d'un autreNabidae: Reduviolus americoferus (L.).
    Notes: Abstract The functional responses of adult and 5th instar Pacific damsel bug,Nabis kinbergii Reuter were determined under laboratory conditions using Australian crop mirid,Sidnia kinbergi (Stal), and pea aphid,Acyrthosiphon pisum (Harris) as prey.Holling's (1959) type II equation was found to adequately define the functional response of this predator except when 5th instar nymphs were provided with Australian crop mirid as prey. In this instance, a type III response was found.
