The new growth of New Guinea impatiens can be severely
stunted and distorted by cyclamen mite, creating symptoms that resemble
those caused by INSV or even thrips. Selective controls for cyclamen
mite are needed since materials used for spider mites are not necessarily
effective against cyclamen mite.
