A Computer Simulation Model of Waterhyacinth and Weevil Interactions [PDF]
, 1991 A personal computer simulation model termed INSECT has been developed to evaluate biological control of waterhyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms.) by two species of weevil (Neochetina eichhorniae Warner, and N. bruchi Hustache).

Do tissue carbon and nitrogen limit population growth of weevils introduced to control waterhyacinth at a site in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California? [PDF]
, 2004 Waterhyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes(Mart.) Solms), is a serious problem in the Sacramento Delta. Two weevil species (Neochetina bruchi Hustache and N. eichhorniae Warner) have been introduced as biological control agents. The purpose of this study was

Temperature Optima for Development of Neochetina eichhorniae and Orthogalumna terebrantis
The Florida Entomologist, 1977 Mottled waterhyacinth weevils, Neochetina eichhorniae Warner, and waterhyacinth mites, Orthogalumna terebrantis Wallwork, were tested for mortality, feeding, oviposition, and emergence at 4 temperature regimes, viz. 5-25@*, 10-30@*, 15-35@*, and 20-40@*C. Highest mortality for both species occurred at the 2 extreme regimes.

Persebaran Agens Hayati Neochetina Spp. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Di Jawa Barat Dan DKI Jakarta [PDF]
, 2006 The establishment of Neochetina spp. as biocontrol agent of waterhyacinth are related to the weevil's ability to disperse and to increase their population sizes. The objective of this research was to study the distribution and abundance of Neochetina spp.

The decline of water hyacinth on Lake Victoria was due to biological control by Neochetina spp [PDF]
, 2007 There has been some debate recently about the cause of the decline of water hyacinth on Lake Victoria. While much of this evidence points to classical biological control as the major factor, the El Niño associated weather pattern of the last quarter of ...

The Florida Entomologist, 1991 Several insect pathogens were tested for infectivity against Neochetina eichhorniae Warner (Coleoptera:Curculionidae), a biological control agent for waterhyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms. No mortality resulted from exposure to 21 strains of Bacillus thuringiensis.
