Despite this association, its behavioural and trophic interactions with immature drosophilid stages remain poorly understood.

Two types of predatory mite were compared: (1) fly-reared (FR) and (2) mite-reared (MR), raised on fruit flies or acarid mites, respectively. Predator females successfully attacked all developmental stages, except pupae, during 24\u00a0h of exposure in our assay. In non-choice tests, mean predation rates were highest on first-instar (L1), followed by eggs, second-instar (L2), and third-instar larvae (L3). FR predators, as compared to MR predators, showed the highest predation rates on all prey stages except L3. Feeding on fly eggs,\n                    <jats:italic>B. mali<\/jats:italic>\n                    exhibited significantly higher fecundity, laying nearly twice as many eggs compared to when they were fed on L1. Their oviposition declined markedly on L2 and L3. In two-choice and three-choice assays,\n                    <jats:italic>B. mali<\/jats:italic>\n                    showed a clear preference for eggs over larval instars in both predator types.

Furthermore,\n                    <jats:italic>B. mali<\/jats:italic>\n                    females displayed different behaviour depending on the proportion of fly eggs and\/or larvae available, including no switching, switching, or counter-switching. These findings improve understanding of trophic interactions between mesostigmatic mites and drosophilid flies and highlight the role of dietary experience in shaping predator foraging behaviour.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s10493-026-01187-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,31]],"date-time":"2026-08-31T10:21:06Z","timestamp":1788171666000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Predation, prey preference and switching behaviour of the soil predatory mite Blattisocius mali (Mesostigmata: Blattisociidae) on immature stages of Drosophila hydei"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"97","author":[{"given":"Muhammad Arslan","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katarzyna","family":"Michalska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcin","family":"Studnicki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"1187_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"265","DOI":"10.1093\/jee\/18.2.265a","volume":"18","author":"WS Abbott","year":"1925","unstructured":"Abbott WS (1925) A method of computing the effectiveness of an insecticide.
