Photoperiod and temperature studies to determine whether diapause is found in successive generations of the African phytoseiid, Euseius fustis (Pritchard and Baker) (Acari: Phytoseiidae)

Photoperiod and temperature conditions known to induce diapause in tropical arthropods were tested on two generations (G sub(0) and G sub(1)) of the phytoseiid, Euseius fustis.
