Abstract | ||||
The new results according to Anderson & Trueman (2ooo) and Zaki (2009) determining the specific statuses of Varroa in Egypt were identical to that of the Korean genotype of V. destructor. The honeybee mite Varroa destrictor specimens collected, from nine governorates representing ten regions: Arish and Rafah (North Sini), Esmailia, Minia, Giza, Gharbia, Qalubia, New Valley (Dakhla Oasis), Alexandria and Fayoum governorates examined and measured. Observations of characters under scanning electornmicroscope were analyzed. | ||||
