Remarks — Brevipalpus obovatus was found on a wide range of hosts worldwide ( Beard et al. 2015 ; Castro et al. 2024). In Türkiye, the species was first discovered on lemon trees in

Mersin by Düzgüneş (1952). Later, it was found on various plants such as Citrus limonium L. ( Rutaceae ), Fragaria sp. ( Rosaceae ), Hedera helix L. ( Araliaceae ), ornamental plants, weeds ( Düzgüneş 1965, 1977), chestnut ( Önuçar and Ulu 1988) Coleus sp. ( Lamiaceae ), H. helix ,

Mikania sp. ( Asteraceae ) and Spathiphyllum wallisii Regel ( Araceae ) ( Bozkurt 1994), tea

(Özman- Sullivan et al. 2007), persimmon ( Akyazı et al. 2016 a, 2017), vegetables ( Soysal and Akyazı 2018), and Cornus mas L. ( Cornaceae ) ( Altunç and Akyazı 2019) over the years. This phytophagous mite may cause chlorosis or necrotic areas on citrus leaves. In addition, it is strongly associated with the nuclear citrus leprosis viruses; citrus leprosis virus N (CiLV-N) and citrus necrotic spot virus (CiNSV) in the New World (Ueckerman et al. 2018). The species was detected on just kiwifruit imported to South Africa from New Zealand, China, Greece and Italy ( Tshikhudo et al. 2021). It was found in association with the phytoseiids, Amblyseius swirskii

Athias & Henriot, Typhlodromus (Anthoseius) recki Wainstein , P. finitimus , E. scutalis , Euseius stipulatus (Athias & Henriot) on solanaceous plants in the Syrian coastal region ( Dayoub and Boubou 2023). Among them, P. finitimus and E. stipulatus were detected in Ordu’s kiwi vines in the current study.
