Comments
Acarus immobilis was reported by Çobanoğlu (1996) on wheat in Edirne. The damage of this mite was also identified on kashar cheese by Çobanoğlu and Toros (1988). This mite is a polyphagous species, which is known as flour-cereal mite. Its hosts are flour, seed, onion, garlic, pet food, oilseed, harvested grain, hay, grass, soils, medicinal plants, cheese, abandoned beehives, deep poultry (Solomon 1962; Solarz et al. 1997; Mason 2004; Webster et al. 2004). In this study, it was found on head, green parts and storage of garlic cultivation areas in six villages of Taşköprü.
