Abstract
The South African chrysomelid beetle Chrysolina pardalina (Chrysomelidae) found on Berkheya coddii (Asteraceae), the endemic species of ultramafic soils, fully develops on this Ni-hyperaccumulator plant. This leaf-beetle is a potent controlling agent for its host plant in case of its introduction as a bio-remedial factor in nickel contaminated areas in other countries. Test of choice of potential hosts with local plant species growing on ultramafic rocks, other than B. coddii, confirmed that Ch. pardalina is rather a strict monophagic species. The host plant B. coddii is even distinctly preferred compared to other Berkheya species. Additional examinations revealed that Ni concentration in B. coddii is not a limiting factor in its diet as opposed to age of the host plant, when the senescent plants strongly limit the food intake.
