Purpose An application to import and release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum Application number APP203667 Application type Notified, Full Release Applicant Waikato Regional Council Date formally received 17 January 2019 1 EPA advice for APP203667 Executive Summary and Recommendation In January 2019, Waikato Regional Council submitted an application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) seeking pre-approval to release the moth plant beetle, Freudeita cf. cupripennis, as a biological control agent (BCA) for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum. The application was publicly notified. The EPA received 53 submissions, 23 submissions supported the application, four submissions neither supported nor opposed and 26 submissions opposed the application. The EPA assessed the risks, costs and benefits of the release of F. cf. cupripennis in the context of the environment, market economy, people and communities, public health and on the relationship of Māori and their culture and traditions with their ancestral lands, water, sites, wāhi tapu, valued flora and fauna, and other taonga. The EPA assessed that there are no direct or tangible risks to public health from the release of the moth plant beetle and this was not considered in the assessment. Regarding the environment, we assessed the benefits from the release of the moth plant beetle and found that the BCA is unlikely to reduce the use of chemicals since only a small quantity of herbicide gel is used and that broad spectrum-herbicides would continue to be used to treat other weeds.

  • Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) For: Aphis Nerii
    Rapid Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) for: Aphis nerii April 2015 Stage 1: Initiation 1. What is the name of the pest? Aphis nerii Boyer de Fonscolombe (Hemiptera: Aphididae). Up to 11 synonyms are associated with A. nerii, though only Aphis lutescens appears regularly in the literature. Common names: oleander aphid, milkweed aphid. 2. What initiated this rapid PRA? In November 2014 entomologists at Fera received samples of an aphid from a private residence in London that were confirmed as Aphis nerii (Sharon Reid pers. comm. 05.11.2014). These samples had been requested after the presence of the pest was published online in a blog (Taylor 2012). The species has been present at the residence every year since 2008, indicating an established population. An update to the 2002 PRA (MacLeod, 2002) was initiated to determine the implications of this establishment and the impacts the pest may have in the UK. 3. What is the PRA area? The PRA area is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. 1 Stage 2: Risk Assessment 4. What is the pest’s status in the EC Plant Health Directive (Council Directive 2000/29/EC1) and in the lists of EPPO2? The pest is not listed in the EC Plant Health Directive and is not recommended for regulation as a quarantine pest by EPPO, nor is it on the EPPO Alert List. 5. What is the pest’s current geographical distribution? The distribution of A. nerii has been described as found in “tropical to warm temperate regions throughout the world” (McAuslane, 2014) as well as including many of the remote pacific islands (Blackman et al., 1994).

Here, we use a modelling approach to evaluate the phylogenetic conservatism; hypothesis that nectar sucrose proportion (NSP) is an adaptation to pollina- phylogenetic constraint; tors. We analyse ~ 2100 species of asterids, spanning several plant families pollination syndrome; and pollinator groups (PGs), and show that the hypothesis of adaptation sucrose. cannot be rejected: NSP evolves towards two optimal values, high NSP for specialist-pollinated and low NSP for generalist-pollinated plants. However, the inferred adaptive process is weak, suggesting that adaptation to PG only provides a partial explanation for how nectar evolves. Additional factors are therefore needed to fully explain nectar evolution, and we suggest that future studies might incorporate floral shape and size and the abiotic envi- ronment into the analytical framework.

  • Import and Release the Moth Plant Rust Fungus, Puccinia Araujiae, As a Biocontrol Agent for the Weed Moth Plant
    Staff Assessment Report APP202529: import and release the moth plant rust fungus, Puccinia araujiae, as a biocontrol agent for the weed moth plant 23 October 2015 Purpose An application to import and release the moth plant rust fungus, Puccinia araujiae, as a biocontrol agent for the weed moth plant, Araujia hortorum Application number APP202529 Application type To obtain approval to release new organisms Applicant Northland Regional Council Date formally received 17 August 2015 2 EPA advice for application APP202529 Executive Summary and Recommendation In August 2015, Northland Regional Council made an application to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) seeking to introduce the moth plant rust fungus (Puccinia araujiae) as a biological control agent for the weed moth plant (Araujia hortorum). We examined the beneficial and adverse effects to the environment, market economy, and society and communities, in addition to the effects on Māori and their relationship to the environment in our assessment of the application. The applicant presented evidence to show that the moth plant rust fungus will not infect native New Zealand species based on taxonomic analysis and safety testing conducted in quarantine. New Zealand jasmine (Parsonsia spp.) is the only native plant that is in the same family as moth plant but it belongs to a different sub-family. Host range testing showed that moth plant rust only attacks plants in the sub-tribe to which moth plant belongs, therefore, New Zealand jasmine is not considered susceptible to the rust. The moth plant rust may attack the exotic ornamental species tweedia since it is in the same sub-tribe as moth plant.
