  • Pest Categorisation of Citripestis Sagittiferella
    SCIENTIFIC OPINION ADOPTED: 19 May 2021 doi: 10.2903/j.efsa.2021.6664 Pest categorisation of Citripestis sagittiferella EFSA Panel on Plant Health (PLH), Claude Bragard, Katharina Dehnen-Schmutz, Francesco Di Serio, Paolo Gonthier, Marie-Agnes Jacques, Josep Anton Jaques Miret, Annemarie Fejer Justesen, Christer Sven Magnusson, Panagiotis Milonas, Juan A Navas-Cortes, Stephen Parnell, Roel Potting, Philippe Lucien Reignault, Hans-Hermann Thulke, Wopke Van der Werf, Antonio Vicent Civera, Jonathan Yuen, Lucia Zappala, Chris Malumphy, Ewelina Czwienczek, Virag Kertesz, Andrea Maiorano and Alan MacLeod Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the citrus pulp borer, Citripestis sagittiferella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), for the EU. This oligophagous species, which feeds on Citrus spp., occurs in Southeast Asia, mostly in lowlands but can also be found up to 1,200 m above sea level. Adults oviposit on citrus fruit at any stage of the fruit development. Larvae feed in the fruit then abandon it to pupate in the soil within an earthen cocoon. C. sagittiferella is multivoltine in its native range. This species is not included in EU Commission Implementing Regulation 2019/2072. Potential entry pathways for C. sagittiferella, such as Citrus spp. plants for planting with foliage and soil/growing medium, and soil/growing medium by themselves can be considered as closed. The citrus fruit pathway remains open for countries where C. sagittiferella is known to occur. Indeed, this species was intercepted several times in the UK during the last decade. Hosts of C. sagittiferella are available (Citrus spp.) in the southern EU. The EU has climatic conditions that are also found in countries where C.

Some cannot be differentiated at any life stage. Over the past decade, DNA barcoding has gained increasing adoption as a tool to both identify known species and to reveal cryptic taxa. Although there has not been a focused effort to develop a barcode library for them, reference sequences are now available for 77% of the 409 species of arthropods documented on major pest databases. Aside from developing the reference library needed to guide specimen identifications, past barcode studies have revealed that a significant fraction of arthropod pests are a complex of allied taxa.

  • Yponomeutidae Biosecurity Occurrence Background
    Prays nephelomima Yponomeutidae Ermine Moths Biosecurity BIOSECURITY ALERT This Family is of Biosecurity Concern Occurrence This family occurs in Australia. Background The Yponomeutidae is a relatively small family of around 400 named species; most are found in the tropics, and there are 50 known Australian species. Ermine moths are small to medium-sized and the species are diverse in morphology and biology. Caterpillars are diverse in lifestyle and include leaf-webbers, leaf skeletonisers, leafminers, needleminers and fruit borers. Some species are considered to be minor pests in agriculture, horticulture and forestry. Subfamilies Argyresthiinae Attevinae Praydinae Saridoscelinae Scythropiinae Yponomeutinae Short Description Caterpillars from this family are small at around 15 mm in length, maximum. They tend to be colourful, often with longitudinal stripes. They are leafminers but also attack flowers and bore into fruit and seeds. The caterpillars are not hairy, as they only have primary setae; although these can be relatively long (Fig. 1). They sometimes feed externally and may form communal webs with large amounts of silk (Fig. 2). Diagnosis Adapted from Dugdale et al. (1999) and Stehr et al. (1987) 1. Thoracic legs – the pretarsus or claw is unusually long and straight. In Yponomeutidae, but absent in the Argyresthiinae (Fig. 3). 2. Abdominal segments with SD2 absent. In Argyresthiinae. 3.

  • Scenario of Insect Pests, Predators and Pollinators Associated with Crop Plants in an Agroforestry in Bangladesh

Miah2 1Department of Entomology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University Gazipur, Bangladesh 2Department of Agroforestry and Environment, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur, Bangladesh ABSTRACT The abundance of insect pests, predators and pollinators and status of pest insects associated with citrus, mango and pineapple crops grown in an agroforestry in Bangladesh was studied during July 2015 to June 2016. Twenty five species of insects belonging to 19 families in 5 orders were found as pest of citrus and their relative abundance varied from 2.4 to 13.4%. Among the citrus pests, green leaf hopper was most abundant, but whitefly, mealy bug, lemon butterfly and leaf minor were found as major pests. Fifteen species of insects under 13 families in 6 orders were found as pests of mango and their relative abundance varied from 0.5 to 82.6%, and hopper and fruit fly were found as major pests. Four species of insects belonging to 4 families in 3 orders were found as pest of pineapple and their relative abundance varied from 12.2 to 44.9%, and all were found as minor pests. There were 20 species of predator insects belonging to 13 families in 6 orders and their abundance ranged from 0.8 to 2.5/ 40 sweeps. In total 19 species of insects belonging to 12 families in 4 orders were found as pollinators and their abundance varied from 1.7 to 5.1/40 sweeps.

ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: We are proposing to amend the regulations to allow the importation of fresh pummelo fruit from Thailand into the continental United States. As a condition of entry, fresh pummelo fruit from Thailand would be subject to a systems approach that would include irradiation treatment, packinghouse processing requirements, and port of entry inspection. The fruit would also be required to be imported in commercial consignments and be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued by the national plant protection organization of Thailand. This action would allow for the importation of fresh pummelo fruit from Thailand while continuing to provide protection against the introduction of plant pests into the continental United States.
