| Sumario: | The effectiveness of <em>Neochetina eichhorniae</em> as a biocontrol agent of waterhyacinth was evaluated in West Java and DKI Jakarta. The objective of this research was to study the implication of the existence of <em>N. eichhorniae</em> on waterhyacinth. Research was conducted in several freshwater ecosystem infested by waterhyacinth and <em>N. eichhorniae</em>, including Cibinong and Lido lakes (Bogor District), Muara Angke Sanctuary (North Jakarta), and Citarum Hulu river (Purwakarta District), conducted during April to August 2004. The impact of <em>N. eichhorniae</em> on waterhyacinth was evaluated by leaf damage intensity and growth parameter of the plant. Results showed that there was no correlation between waterhyacinth and the occurrence of the <em>N. eichhorniae</em>. The population of <em>N. eichhorniae</em> adults was significantly low in any locations studied. Thus, the existence of the biocontrol agent can not result in decreasing of waterhyacinth population. |
