This species was already mentioned from Guadeloupe and other Islands of the French Antilles ( Moraes et al. 2000; Mailloux et al. 2010; Kreiter et al. 2013) but only in very few localities on various host plants. It is distributed in many countries of the world, mainly in tropical areas.
The biology of this species has been studied for pest control purposes including side effects of acaricides ( Bin Ibrahim and Tan 2000). The activity, feeding, development, predation, cannibalism, intra-guild predation and behaviour have been extensively studied by several authors ( Schausberger and Croft 1999a, b; Croft et al. 1999a, b; Schausberger and Croft 2000a,
b; Blackwood et al. 2001). It was found very rarely except in a study on companion plants in citrus orchards in Guadeloupe ( Mailloux et al. 2010; Kreiter et al. 2013) and La Réunion
(Le Bellec, unpublished data). This species seems to be more common on grasses of the lower vegetation, especially Fabaceae with populations of tetranychid mites.

Les Saintes, Malaysia, Marie-Galante, Martinique, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Papua

Specimens examined — All 8 ♀♀ measured: Lamentin, CIRAD-CAEC station (long.
14°37′N, lat. 60°58′O, alt. 25 m), 4 ♀♀ on P. phaseoloides collected 23-05-2012, 1 ♀ on N.
wightii collected 7-02-2013, 2 ♀♀ on M. atropurpureum collected 6-03-2013; Saint-Joseph, Rivière Lézarde, CIRAD (long. 14°39′N, lat. 60°59′O, alt. 45 m), 1 ♀ on citrus leaves (C. GoogleMaps
sinensis et C. latifolia ), 17-07-2012.
Remarks — Although showing some great variations, especially with the holotype from
Indonesia re-described by Schicha (1975), all the measurements and description of the specimens collected in this study fit very well those concerning other populations given in the table 11, especially with those from specimens of the French Caribbean Islands ( Moraes et al.
2000) and from specimens of the Dominican Republic ( Abo-Shnaf et al. 2016).
