Status of forest remnants invaded by tradescantia (Tradescantia fluminensis Vell.) following introduction of biocontrol beetles and manual clearance after three years

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 548-572, December 2025.
ABSTRACT We compared biocontrol beetles and manual clearing of tradescantia in forest remnants invaded by tradescantia (Tradescantia fluminensis Vell.) on the agriculturally modified Hikurangi floodplain, northern New Zealand, to inform best practice in enhancing native biodiversity. Four forest remnant study sites were used: two on dairy farms and two
