Abstract
Amblyseius fallacis was introduced into Tianshui city, Gansu Province in 1986. Mass reared A. fallacis was released in the apple orchards in mid to late June of 1987 and 1988 to control Panonyckus ulmi at a ratio of 1:50 (predatonprey). The population of the spider mite was reduced from 7.79 mites/leaf at its peak (July 31, 1987) and 21.84 mites/leaf (Aug.2, 1988) to 1.76 mites/leaf (1987) and 1.9 mites/leaf (1988),respective!y, 50-60 days after the releases, while the population on the control trees was 19.43/leaf (1987) and 44.15/Seaf (1988), respectively. Release of the predator also gave good controls of the overwintering eggs of the spider mite. The new growth shoots in the releasing orchard had 15.95 eggs/branch, while that in the chemical control orchard had 93.64 eggs/branch.
