Aquatic plant harvest has been widely considered a plant management measure, as it can physically remove the targeted plants quickly and efficiently. Few empirical studies have examined the effects of harvesting on water quality or the aquatic plant community in a complete lake ecosystem. A large area (196 km2) of floating-leaved Nymphoides peltata was harvested in Lake Taihu in 2013. The effects of harvesting on the coverage and biomass of N. peltata and on the submerged plant community were evaluated. The quantities of nitrogen and phosphorus removed by harvesting were calculated. Harvesting caused an immediate reduction in N. peltata coverage, and its coverage in the following year ranged from 29.2% to 95.1%. Wave conditions and interspecific competition were the main factors that influenced the response of the submerged plant community to N. peltata harvesting. Harvesting may favor the dominance of Hydrilla verticillata, which expands quickly at an average growth rate of 53 ± 14 g m−2 day−1. Harvesting a large amount of N. peltata has a positive effect on total nitrogen (TN), ammonium nitrogen (NH3-N), and chemical oxygen demand (CODMn) control but can lead to different consequences (e.g., increase in total phosphorus (TP) and algal concentration).

Bucephalandra sp. is a genus of aquatic plants endemic to Borneo Island, representing the Araceae family. Bucephalandra sp. is famous for its ornamental aquatic plants which are usually used in aquascaping. These aquatic plants come at fantastic prices, e.g. ±300 euros in European ornamental aquatic markets and Rp 50,000 – 700,000 in Indonesian aquatic plant markets. We collected 195 types of Bucephalandra from an ornamental aquatic plant market in Jakarta. In the market, they are sold under its commercial name. Therefore, the aim of this study is to collect and identify the species of all Bucephalandra types in the aquatic plant commercial market. These species that we identified are based on botanical taxonomist identification in the Herbarium Bogoriense Department Botany – Research Centre for Biology – Indonesian Institute of Science (LIPI) Cibinong. The result of this study is from our collection (195 types) of which 102 types are Bucephalandra Motleyana Schott species and 90 types are the other species of Bucephalandra.
