Abstract
⺠The first biological control agent candidate for Lagarosiphon major is assessed. ⺠L. major is the first submerged macrophyte targeted using CBC in Europe. ⺠Demographic, reproductive and survival parameters of Hydrellia lagarosiphon reared on L. major are shown. ⺠The number of Td and the Ro were then calculated to predict establishment potential. ⺠Data suggest H. lagarosiphon is suitable for use as a CBC agent against L. major in Europe.
