Abstract
Citrus red mite (CRM) Panonychuscitri (Mc.Gregor)(Acari: Tetranychidae) is new pest in apple plantation. It was found by author for the first time in 2002 at Batu, Malang, east Java. In abroad, there is no information that apple is host of CRM. The CRM is exotic mite that entered Indonesia around 1992, and citrus is the main host. The objective of this research was to observe abundance of CRM and another mites at IPM and non IPM plantation. Each plantation was chosen randomly 25 sample plants, and 3 sample leaves per sample plant. The observation was done every week for 8 weeks, since July up to August 2007. All of stages of mite was observed and counted, then tested by T test 5%. The phytophagous mite that were found were CRM, Eutetranychusbanksi, Allonychus sp. (Tetranychidae), Polyphagotarsonemus sp. (Tarsonemidae), Brevipalpus sp. (Tenuipalpidae), and predator mite was Amblyseius sp. (Phytoseiidae). The abundance of CRM population at IPM and non IPM land was the highest. In IPM land the abundance of CRM population was significantly lower than non IPM one. The percentage of leaves that attacked only by CRM was the highest.
