In our March webinar we will talk about “Biological Control of Mites of Veterinary Importance”. It will be coordinated by Dr. Márcia Mendes (Researcher at the IB Animal Parasitology Laboratory, Sao Paulo), who together with her team of graduate students from the Biological Institute – SP: Mag. Fernanda Duarte, Mag. Karina Araújo dos Anjos, Lic. Elianai Ribeiro Souza, Blga. Deborah Mirela, Mag. Isabella Almeida, Lic. Thais Araujo Moura and Dra. Tatyana Rodrigueiro, will talk to us about the control of Amblyomma sculptum and Rhipcephalus (Boophilus) microplus ticks through biocontrol agents such as fungi, nematodes and bacteria. They will also tell us about research on the Wolbachia bacterium in ticks in order to verify the potential of use for biocontrol and predatory mites of the Macrochelidae family in the control of sheep gastrointestinal nematodes. A diverse webinar with a lot of information.

We are waiting for you on March 29, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. (Brasilia time) on the SLA YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibzqHfSddd4&ab_channel=SociedadLatinoamericanadeAcarolog%C3%ADa

The SLA December webinar (12/15/2022 at 7:00 p.m. in Brasilia) will deal with “Cryptic species and underestimation of diversity in parasitic mites: case study“. It will be coordinated by Dr. Ricardo Paredes León from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), who together with his team of graduate students Blgo. José Luis Muciño Hernández and Mag. Susana Janeth Trejo Palacios, will talk about the family Pterygosomatidae (Acariformes: Prostigmata), which includes species of parasitic mites that spend their entire life cycle on their hosts, mainly lizards (Reptilia: Squamata).

We are waiting for you!

We invite you to the October SLA webinar: “Advances and challenges in pest monitoring”

Coordinator: Dr. Pedro Yamamoto (Department of Entomology and Acarology of the Higher School of Agriculture “Luiz de Queiroz” ESALQ, University of São Paulo, Piracicaba/SP).
Postgraduate student team: Dr. Geovanny Barroso and Mag. Fernando Henrique Liost Filho.

They will speak about one of the most important phases in the management of agricultural pests, which is monitoring, a tool designed to determine and know the behavior, as well as the levels of insects and phytophagous mites in crops. The procedure is based on taking samples of material in the field using traps, pheromones, food attractants and remote sensing tools.

DATE: October 13
Hours: see poster according to country.
