  • Euseius baetae (Meyer & Rodrigues) Amblyseius baetae (Meyer & Rodrigues, 1966): 28; Euseius baetae (Meyer & Rodrigues), Moraes et al., 2001a: 11; Moraes et al., 1986: 37; 2004: 62; Chant & McMurtry 2005 b: 215; 2007: 120; El Banhawy & Knapp, 2011: 36; Euseius kangwanensis Ueckermann & Loots, 1988: 85 (synonym according to Ueckermann & Loots, 1988; Moraes et al., 2001b; El-Banhawy & Knapp, 2011). The 200 species of the genus Euseius are considered as Type IV species, polliniphagous generalists (McMurtry and Croft 1997; McMurtry et al. 2013) and Euseius baetae is supposed to belong to that Type IV. The biology of E. baetae is however totally unknown. Specimens examined — Mdé, INRAPE (long. 11°41′S, lat. 43°14′E, alt. 50 m), 1 ♀ on Manihot esculenta Crantz (Euphorbiaceae), 2-02-2017; Moroni, Adoudja (long. 11°41′S, lat. 43°15′E, alt. 100 m), 2 ♀♀ on Plectranthus scutellarioides (L.) R.Br. (Lamiaceae), 2-02-2017; 1 ♀ on Alocasia macrorrhizos (L.) G.Don (Araceae), 2-02-2017. Previous record — Congo, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa. Remarks (Table 2) — Measurements of the 4 ♀♀ fit well with the measurements from the literature with slightly shorter dimensions in general.
