We evaluated the effectiveness of using an indigenous generalist predatory mite, Neoseiulus barkeri(Hughes)(Acari: Phytoseiidae), to control Thrips palmi Karny(Thysanoptera: Thripidae)in greenhouse melons. In a growth chamber experiment, the density of T. palmi was lower on plants exposed to 20 N. barkeri per plant than on plants grown without a biological control. In a greenhouse experiment, the density of T. palmi was lower in the N. barkeri release plots than in the no-release plots. These results suggest that N. barkeri is an effective biological control agent against T. palmi.
