TABLE 1.

Summary of the consumptive and nonconsumptive effects (and 95% confidence intervals) of the mite Macrocheles subbadius on different life stages of the cactus fly Drosophila nigrospiracula.

Fly life stage	NCEs of mites	CEs of mites	Data source(s)
Eggs	No decrease in hatch rate among eggs laid near mites.	Treated as 0 a	Mierzejewski et al. (2019)
Larvae/Pupae	Reduced survival by 61%, (16.3–28.3) to adulthood	Negligible infection observed	Horn, Robinson, et al. (2023)
Adults	Reduced lifespan 21%, (2.0–12.2) & reproductive output 13%, (−0.4–9.0)	Fecundity: 101.9% (32.2–175.0) Longevity 67.0% (9.6–19.8)	Horn and Luong (2018); Polak (1996)
Rates	Assumed all individuals experience NCE	41% (0.3164–0.5036) prevalence among adults	Horn, Liang, and Luong (2023)

Note: Rate of effects is also provided. Values are given as: Proportion/percent difference (95% confidence interval).

^a Macrocheles spp. feed on eggs; however, this is likely constant across conditions and the specific rate has not been measured in M. subbadius.
