Secretariat Ms Muriel Suffert – EPPO Secretariat Ms Fabienne Grousset – Consultant for EPPO who has prepared the draft PRA. In addition, comments were received from Dr Christian Cocquempot (INRA, Montpellier, France) and Dr Matteo Maspero (Fondazione Minoproprio, Vertemate con Minoprio, Italy). Core members (Mr Fried, Mr Guitian Castrillon, Ms Le Fay-Souloy, Ms Levi, Mr MacLeod, Ms Petter, Mr Pfeilstetter, Ms Schrader, Mr Sletten, Mr Steffek, Ms Ustun) reviewed the draft PRA between October and December 2012. The risk management part was reviewed by the EPPO Panel on Phytosanitary Measures on 2013-03-06. The EPPO Panel recommended that management measures should also be elaborated for wood commodities. The EPPO Council agreed in September 2013 that O. hirta should already be recommended for regulation as an A1 pest, with measures for the most risky pathway (plants for planting), and measures for wood, wood chips and wood waste to be elaborated later by the Panel. The Panel elaborated measures for wood commodities in 2014. They were approved by the Working Party in June 2014 and included in this revised version of the PRA.

Phytosanitary import requirements of EPPO countries in relation to the various pathways ........................... 78 Introduction The interception of larvae of Oemona hirta (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) on Wisteria plants in the UK in 2010 led to the preparation of a rapid assessment to determine the need for a detailed pest risk analysis (FERA, 2010). This assessment concluded that O. hirta presents a risk to forestry and amenity trees, commercial fruit crops and ornamental shrubs in the UK, and may also present a risk to citrus-growing countries. It therefore recommended that a detailed PRA was needed. In 2011, the Working Party on Phytosanitary Measures decided that an EPPO PRA should be prepared. O. hirta is an extremely polyphagous longhorn beetle that occurs only in New Zealand (Lu & Wang, 2005). Its original hosts were native New Zealand plants, but it expanded its host range to a large number of species exotic to New Zealand, in particular fruit and plantation trees. Citrus spp. are the hosts that are more frequently reported as being attacked in New Zealand (hence its common name ”lemon tree borer”), but the pest attacks over 200 host species from 81 families. The majority of hosts are trees (mostly deciduous) and shrubs, but the host list also comprises some vines or lianes (climbing plants with roots), and large perennial herbaceous plants with high stems. The host range of O. hirta includes many major fruit, nut and forest trees and shrubs of the PRA area, a large number of plants used as ornamentals, as well as species growing in the wild. In addition to findings in 2010, it had also been intercepted in the UK in 1983. Elements on the biology of the pest and its detection Duration of the life cycle The life cycle is recorded to last "at least 2 years in most parts of New Zealand" (Wang et al., 1998; Lu & Wang, 2005; Clearwater, 1981). Data are lacking on whether the duration of the life cycle varies in New Zealand. However, a shorter life cycle may be possible; for example, in a laboratory study at a constant temperature of 23°C, larvae completed their development (from emergence of larvae to pupation) in between 150 and 300 days (see also ”Larvae” below; Wang et al., 2002). Hence it is envisaged in this PRA that the pest may have an annual life cycle in some parts of the PRA area (see 3.03). Finally, a longer life cycle, three years, could also be possible, at least for part of a generation. Life stages Eggs. Eggs are large (2-2.2 mm). The egg stage lasts about 9-13 days: according to Dye (1950) it lasts for 13 days at 15.5°C and for 10 days at 23.6°C, and Wang et al. (2002) states that it lasts for 9 days at 23˚C. Eggs are generally laid at leaf and

  • Using the Larval Parasitoid, Agathis Bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera
    Using the larval parasitoid, Agathis bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae), for early detection of False Codling Moth, Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) infested fruit Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE at RHODES UNIVERSITY by Kennedy Josaya Zimba December 2014 Abstract Thaumatotibia leucotreta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) is one of the major citrus pests of economic importance for South Africa’s citrus industry. It is endemic to Africa, and therefore a phytosanitary pest with zero tolerance by most export markets. The cryptic nature of T. leucotreta makes visual inspection an inefficient method for detecting neonate larvae in fruit in the packhouse. Therefore, a more accurate method for sorting infested fruit at the packhouse, particularly for newly infested fruit could ensure market access. A recent study showed that fruit infested by T. leucotreta emit a chemical profile different from that of a healthy fruit. Several studies provide evidence that parasitoids locate their hosts feeding on fruit by exploiting the novel chemical profiles produced due to host herbivory. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of using the naturally occurring behaviour of a larval parasitoid Agathis bishopi (Nixon) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) for detection of T. leucotreta infested fruit, by determining which compound in infested fruit is attractive to parasitoids. Y- tube olfactometer and flight-tunnel bioassays with healthy and T. leucotreta infested fruit showed a significantly stronger response of A. bishopi female parasitoids to infested fruit. Among the volatile compounds associated with T. leucotreta infested fruit, D-limonene elicited the strongest attraction to A. bishopi female parasitoids.

BRIEF HISTORY E. obliqua The 18th &19th centuries were periods of extensive land exploration in Australia. Enormous numbers of specimens of native flora were collected and ended up in England. The first recorded scientific collection of Australian flora was made by Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander, during Sir James Cook’s 1st voyage to Botany Bay in April 1770. From 1800-1810, George Caley collected widely in N.S.W with exceptional skill and knowledge in his observations, superb preservation of plant specimens, extensive records and fluent expression in written records. It is a great pity that his findings were not published and he didn’t receive the recognition he deserved. The identification and classification of the Australian genus Eucalyptus began in 1788 when the French botanist Charles L’Heritier de Brutelle named a specimen in the British Museum London, Eucalyptus obliqua. This specimen was collected by botanist David Nelson on Captain Cook’s ill- fated third expedition in 1777 to Adventure Bay on Tasmania’s Bruny Is.

Abstract Patterns of flammability across the vascular plant phylogeny, with special emphasis on the genus Dracophyllum by Xinglei Cui Fire has been part of the environment for the entire history of terrestrial plants and is a common disturbance agent in many ecosystems across the world. Fire has a significant role in influencing the structure, pattern and function of many ecosystems. Plant flammability, which is the ability of a plant to burn and sustain a flame, is an important driver of fire in terrestrial ecosystems and thus has a fundamental role in ecosystem dynamics and species evolution. However, the factors that have influenced the evolution of flammability remain unclear.
