Phytoseiid mites (Acari: Phytoseiidae) of fruit orchards in cold regions of Razavi Khorasan province (northeast Iran), with redescription of two species

Seven species from five genera of the family Phytoseiidae were collected in northeast Iran. Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) neyshabouris (Denmark & Daneshvar, 1982) were recorded for the second time. This species with the male of Proprioseiopsis messor (Wainstein, 1960) are redescribed and illustrated. A key to the adult females of the Razavi Khorasan province of Iran is also provided. Phytoseius corniger Wainstein, 1959 had the highest abundance and distribution in this survey.
