Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated 2016: Absent, unreliable record
Comments
EPPO (2022): C. pinifoliae is listed as present in Germany (Schmutterer and Hoffmann, 2016). This report is based on the report by Miller and Davidson (2005) (C. Hoffmann, pers. comm.), which is based on a unique interception in 1935. Therefore, the imported plants could have originated from another country (D. Miller, pers. comm.). This record needs to be further confirmed.
