| Abstract | ||
| Ecological notes and taxonomical revision of the species belonging to family Phytoptidae Murray were studied at four provinces (Qualiubiya, Giza, Behera, Sohag) during two years (2016-2017). The results showed that, three species (Oziella nilotica (Abou-Awad); Mackiella phoenicis Keifer; Retracus johnstoni Keifer) belonging to three genera and two tribes (Phytoptini, Murray, 1877; Mackiellini Newkirk & Keifer, 1971) were recorded and illustrated and arranged in taxonomical key. The mentioned species were varied in their occurrence rate according to different provinces and host plants. | ||
