Publikováno v: Ecological Economics. 45:105-117

A biological control program of water hyacinth was undertaken in Southern Benin between 1991 and 1993. It consisted of the release of three natural enemies, two weevil species and one moth, that feed exclusively on water hyacinth. In 1999, a survey o

Impact of Two Accidentally Introduced Encarsia Species (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) and Other Biotic and Abiotic Factors on the Spiralling Whitefly Aleurodicus dispersus (Russell) (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae), in Benin, West Africa

In early 1993, the spiralling whitefly, Aleurodicus dispersus (Russell), was observed in Benin for the first time, inflicting damage to ornamental and shade trees and cassava. The parasitoids Encarsia ?haitiensis Dozier and E. guadeloupae Viggiani we

Population regulation of a classical biological control agent: larval density dependence in Neochetina eichhorniae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), a biological control agent of water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes

Autor: O. Ajuonu, Mark Rees, John R. U. Wilson

Publikováno v: Bulletin of entomological research. 96(2)

The release of classical biological control agents has reduced the economic, environmental and social problems caused by water hyacinth,Eichhornia crassipes; however, additional control measures are needed in some locations. Water hyacinth plants wer
