US Department of Agriculture/Corps of Engineers Cooperative Aquatic Plant Control Research. Annual Report for FY 1982. Biological and Chemical Control Technologies.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to complete a list of insects associated with hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata (Lf.) Royle) in the United States. The population dynamics of both the insects and their plant host were also investigated by means of sequential quantitative sampling at many Florida sites. These studies will aid in the foreign exploration for natural enemies of hydrilla and will provide data for assisting in evaluating the impact of aquatic plant management practices on the fauna associated with hydrilla. Keywords include: Aquatic plant control; Biological control; Chemcontrol; Herbicides; and Insects.
