Comments: This species is common in the USA, central and northern Europe, and Mediterranean countries ( Peverieri et al., 2009; Miñarro and Kreiter, 2012). It has been reported from different plants in different parts of Turkey ( Şekeroğlu, 1984; Faraji et al., 2011; Ozsisli and Çobanoğlu, 2011; Yeşilayer and Çobanoğlu, 2011; Kumral and Çobanoğlu, 2015; Akyazı et al., 2016; Çobanoğlu and Güldali, 2017; Soysal and Akyazı, 2018). Öksüz (2019) collected this species from beans, cucumbers, eggplants and potatoes on the Çarşamba and Bafra plains of Samsun Province, Turkey. Phytoseius finitimus is a generalist predator that feeds on eriophyid and tetranychid mites, other small arthropods and pollen ( Jeppson et al., 1975; Pappas et al., 2013).
