The results revealed that the bugs dwelling on linden trees were nearly devoid of parasitic mites (only 5% were parasitized), whereas 29% of those collected on the ground were parasitized. The mean numbers of H. adleri found on the respective groups were clearly different. We conclude that selection of a tree habitat in P. apterus might contribute to reducing the risk of being parasitized by H. adleri.
