Subject: Re: Aceria salsolae
Dear Mike! I'm not personally working on Eriophyid mites, but as far as I know there's an article on this species: Sobhian R., Tunc I., and F. Erler. (1998) 'Preliminary studies on the biology and host specificity of Aceria salsolae and Lixus salsolae, two candidates for biological control of Salsola kali'. I'm sorry but I don’t have any contact details of any of the authors. Hope you find something more specific, Endrit KULLAJ External Lecturer Department of 'Horticulture & Plant Protection' Agriculture University of Tirana
