Dear Members, we invite you to a new SLA webinar:

News about phytophagous mites in the Americas: a tremendous challenge!

The number of known species is very poor to the number of species estimated by molecular techniques, calculated in millions of species not yet discovered. The most problematic thing is the understanding of new species, possible new families, and genera, not yet discovered or studied. The importance of using molecular and microscopic techniques that help understand this mite biodiversity is highlighted. Knowledge of these species, in diverse environments as well as their interactions with their hosts and predators, represents a challenge for the Americas.

Speakers: Dr. Ronald Ochoa (SEL-ARS-USDA-EAU Researcher) and Mg. Javier Huanca (National University of San Agustín, Arequipa, Peru)
