EPPO Reporting Service (2011/004) : a population was isolated in 2003 from heavily infested tomato roots (L. esculentum cv. Belle) grown in a glasshouse located in the village of Dornberk. This was the first record for Slovenia and Europe. The pest is not considered established as all infested plants were destroyed and the nematode has not been found again.
EPPO Reporting Service (2016/212) and EPPO Reporting Service (2017/216) : further studies have showed that the population previously found in Dornberk was not M. ethiopica but M. luci.
