Population Dynamics of Cyrtobagous salviniae on Common Salvinia in South Florida
Common salvinia (Salvinia minimaBaker) is an exotic floating fern that has been in the U.S. from at least 1928(Small 1931). Its pest status in Florida is less clear perhaps due to the presence of the specialized herbivore Cyrtobagous salviniae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). Our objective was to sample populations of adultC. salviniaein south Florida in order to assess temporal abundanceand estimate density on common salvinia. (PDF has 4 pages.)
