....bambusae, development, survival, sex ratio, fecundity. 14 Systematic Applied Acarology Special Publications (2001) 6 Introduction The spider mite Schizotetranychus bambusae Reck (Acari: Prostigmata: Tetranychidae) is a widespread species that occurs on many bamboo species in China (Wang 1981; Lin et al. 2000) It was a serious pest of ornamental bamboos in Shandong Province in northern China (Sun et al. 1997) Recently, it was reported as being the major pest species on moso bamboo (Phyllostaychs pubescens) in Sichuan Province, southwest China (Liu et al. 2000) Three species of the ....

.... Koch and Tetranychus cinnabarinus (Boisduval) using morphological characters is often difficult because they are both polymorphic and there is significant intraspecific variation among populations on different host plants and from different geographic locations (e.g. van de Bund Helle 1960; Wang 1981). This has been extremely unfortunate because both species are economically very important throughout the world. Boudreaux (1956) first revived T. cinnabarinus as a distinct species and separated it from T. urticae using breeding experiments as well as morphological characters: A) the shape of ....
.... specimens in the slide may affect the results (Meyer 1987) The shape of male aedeagus is also useful but males are sometimes rare in greenhouse samples and specimens need to be mounted in a perfect lateral position to reveal the shape of aedeagus; the variation in shape among populations (e.g. Wang 1981) caused added difficulty for applied acarologists using this character. Debates on the specific status of T. urticae and T. cinnabarius have never ended since the first revision of the Tetranychidae by Prichard and Baker (1955) who listed 43 synonyms under T. telarius (L) T. urticae) More ....

....described from around the world, 21 of them from China, including Hong Kong and Taiwan (Bolland et al. 1998) A few Chinese species were reported generally from Bambusaceae with no generic or specific information of the hosts: S. bambusae Reck from Beijing, Shaanxi, Jiangsu, Guangxi and Guangdong (Wang 1981; Ma et al. 1984) S. emaiensis Wang from Sichuan, S. minutes Wang from Fujian, and S. elongatus Wang Cui from Yunnan (Wang 1983; Wang et al. 1985; Wang Cui 1991) S. nanjinensis is the only species specifically reported to be present on the moso bamboo and other bamboo plants (Yu Shi 1991) ....
....(Wang 1983; Wang et al. 1985; Wang Cui 1991) S. nanjinensis is the only species specifically reported to be present on the moso bamboo and other bamboo plants (Yu Shi 1991) S. celarius (Banks) has been recorded on various species of bamboo and reported to occur in Fujian and other provinces (Wang 1981; Wang et al. 1985; Wang et al. 1994) Whether the specimens studied by Wang (1981) are truly S. celarius cannot be determined until we have seen them, but our study of type specimens of S. celarius and specimens studied by Pritchard and Baker (1955) from the United States National Museum showed ....
