The beetle Macroplea japana was evaluated for its potential as an agent for biological control of hydrilla. Our field surveys and lab observations indicate that all stages of this beetle live underwater feeding upon the base of their host plant near the hydrosoil. Surveys for the beetles were conducted in 10 provinces but they were found only in Hubei, Hunan, and Guizhou. In the field, we found the beetle fed and completed its development on 9 plant species in 7 different genera. Considering this wide host range, it is unlikely that M. japana will be developed as a biological control agent for hydrilla.
