The present work concerns the innocuity of Histutella thompsonii Fisher isolated in Cuba from a citrus rust mite. Phyllocoptruta oleivora Ashm. This phytopathogenic arachnide is an important pest of different citrus fruit plantations. The infectivity tests were performed in 220 animals (mice and guinea pigs) inoculated by intraperitoneal and subcutaneous injections. Animlas showed macroscopic alterations such as nodules in the liver capsule, spleen, subcutaneous tissue; superficial fibrinous adhesions on these organs and hepatosplenomegaly. No fungi were recovered from organs at any time and only disintegrated hyphal elements were observed. The histopathological study disclosed a non-specific tissue reaction to a foreign body. The results obtained suggest the non-infectivity and innocuity of Hirsutella thompsonii Fisher in mice and guinea pigs. (02572)

The present work was made in order to contribute to the knowledge about the mites and their relationship with plants, mainly in tropical regions. Mites were observed and collected in plant species with more economic importance in the Mexican State of Tabasco, and injuries attributed to them were recorded. Oconomically significant losses attributed to species of Tenuipalpus, Brevipalpus, Eriophyes, Steneotarsonemus, Paralorryia, Lorryia, Monoychellus, Oligonychus, Tetranychus and Eotetranychus were detected in mote tree, coconut palm, cassava, papaya tree, cedar and bean.
