Palmyrapalme
"Aceria guerreronis" was first described by Hartford H Keifer in 1965 from Mexico, but it is unclear whether it originated from the Old or New World. The coconut palm originated in the South Pacific region and spread along the coasts of Asia, and later Africa. It was introduced into the Americas by traders in the sixteenth century, but whether the mite moved with it or arrived in some other way is not known. The coconut palm ("Cocos nucifera") is the only known host, apart from a single record in South America of it occurring on " Lytocaryum weddellianum", a related species of palm. More recently, it has also been reported on "Borassus flabellifer" and "Syagrus romanzoffiana".
