英文摘要 | Native to China, the Chinese tallow, Triadica sebifera (Euphorbiaceae) is an aggressive woody invader in the southeastern United States. The flea beetle, Bikasha collaris (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae), is a common herbivore attacking this plant in China. To evaluate its potential as a biological control agent the host specificity and impact were studied in China. The potential host range of B. collaris was evaluated on 68 plant species in 20 families through no-choice and choice tests. Adults only survived and fed on plants from the genus Triadica while larvae only developed successfully on T. sebifera in no-choice tests. Under choice conditions, adults showed a distinct preference for T. sebifera over other Triadica species. The impact of the above- and belowground herbivory on the growth of T. sebifera was evaluated in a common garden. B. collaris could reduce stem height, total biomass, number of leaves and stem diameter at a density of 10 individuals per plant. Above-and belowground herbivory had similar effects on plant growth parameters. The results of this study suggested that B. collaris is a potential biological control agent of T. sebifera though further tests on native North American species are needed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.
