Abstract

There is little information on arthropod fauna of agricultural importance in Anturio. For this reason, the collection and identification of arthropods that have the potential as pests and natural enemies, present in anthurium cutting systems, were carried out in the central area of the State of Veracruz, Mexico. The largest number of collected organs is about the mite kind (913) that represents 60.5% of the total; 589 individuals correspond to the Thysanoptera order, (39.3%), and seven to Hemiptera (Aphididae, 0.5%). In addition, seven families of mites were identified: Tarsonemidae, Tetranychidae, Tenuipalpidae, Phytoseiidae, Stigmaeidae, Glyeyphagidae and Tydeidae. This information represents the basis for the design of integrated agroecosystem management measures.
