The significance of natural enemies in the failure or reduced effectiveness of weed biological control agents remains largely unknown. Larval and pupal parasitism by native insects in the stem-galling moth Epiblema strenuana was studied in north Quee

The germinable soil seedbank was determined at two sites in central Queensland on four separate occasions between February 1995 and October 1996. These sites were infested with parthenium weed (Parthenium hysterophorus L.), a serious invasive exotic

The larvae of the hawk moth, Nephele densoi Keferstein, feed on the leaves of Cryptostegia grandiflora R. Br. in Madagascar. Host-specificity tests showed that feeding by N. densoi is restricted to plants in the families Asclepiadaceae (subfamily Per

Parthenium hysterophorus L. seeds were buried at a depth of 5 cm for periods of 2-24 months to determine their longevity. The majority (73.7%) of these seeds were still viable after 24 months of burial. The remainder could not be recovered (18.0%) or

The efficacy of Epiblema strenuana Walk., a stem-galling moth, as a biological control agent for Parthenium hysterophorus L. (ragweed parthenium) was examined in a glasshouse pot experiment. The importance of the timing of insect attack and the prese

The moth Euclasta whalleyi was introduced into Australia in 1988 for the biocontrol of its host plant, rubber vine Cryptostegia grandiflora , despite test results predicting it might also attack the related native vine Gymnanthera oblonga . Ten years
