Charles, J.G., Hill, M.G., & Allan, D.J. 1995a Persistence of the predatory mite, Hemisarcoptes coccophagus Meyer (Hemisarcoptidae), on low populations of Hemiberlesia lataniae Signoret) (Diaspididae) in New Zealand.. Israel Journal of Entomology 29: 297-300.

Notes: Population fluctuations of Hemisarcoptes coccophagus and Hemiberlesia lataniae on a row of Lombardy poplar shelter trees were measured, in the absence of any pesticide applications, from the initial establishment of the mite in January 1990 until May 1994; Hemisarcoptes coccophagus persisted at one location for nearly 5 years, and showed an ability to contribute to the biological control of H. lataniae in the long run, despite the absence of Chilocorus spp.
