During the last week of November 2011, the finding of one male adult of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae – EPPO A2 List) was reported by a scientist in a private garden in Ostend, Belgium. The NPPO is carrying out a short PRA in order to determine further actions such as monitoring the relevant area. More detailed information will be provided by the NPPO as soon as possible.
