The present study was carried out in the newly established animal production farmof the Faculty of Agriculture, Sohag University, in order to survey the mite species inhabiting manure and dung hills. The study showed the occurrence of six species of mites (ie, Macrocheles solimaniHafez, El-Badry & Nasr, 1985; Macrocheles merdarius (Berlese, 1889); Uropodiaspis aegyptiacusAhmed, 1984; Siteroptes manure Soliman & Kandeel, 1986; Histiostoma arcuatus Negm, 2007 and Hormosianoetus mahunkai Eraky & Shoker, 1993. The checklist reported 120 mite species pertaining to 18 families and 53 genera. Interestingly, the largest diversities of mite species were recorded to the Mesostigmata (50 species) and the Acaridida (45 species). Therefore, it is clear that, there are large numbers of mite pests (Acaridida species) inhabiting manure in Egypt, that may be transferred to agricultural crops when manure used in cultivation. On the other side, the diversity of the predatory mite species should be taken into consideration to establish control programsby using these species as a biological control agent to control the pest ones.
