During this study, 19 species belonging to 8 genera and 3 subfamilies were collected and identified. The list of identified species is as follows. New species for Guilan Provine mite fauna are marked by an asterisk (*). Also, an identification key for phytoseiid mites of raspberry shrubs in Guilan province is provided.
