Low Temperature Mortality of European Red Mite, Panonychus Ulmi (Kock), Winter Eggs and its Ecological Significance.

The winter eggs of the phytophagous mite Panonychus ulmi (Koch) in Nova Scotia have been found to be killed by cold at the lower extremes of temperature. A more resistant form occurs in the colder areas of New Brunswick and Quebec. For short exposures the mean lethal temperature of overwintering eggs for the susceptible and resistant forms respectively is -24° F. and -35° F. [...]
