EPPO report on selected intercepted consignments
The EPPO Secretariat has collected the intercepted consignments received from August until December 1995, from the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Jersey, Netherlands, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland, Tunisia, United Kingdom. When a consignment has been reexported and the country of origin is unknown, the reexporting country is indicated into brackets.
Concerning this later point, it must be noted that in the EPPO RS 95/175, the consignment of Syngonium podophyllum infested by Echinothrips americanus and intercepted by United Kingdom did not came from Denmark. Denmark was only a reexporting country (and should have been indicated into brackets). Echinothrips americanus is not present in Denmark.
In addition, the EPPO Secretariat has selected only interceptions made because of the presence of pests; other interceptions due to prohibited commodities, missing or invalid certificates are not indicated here. It must be pointed out that this data is only partial, as many EPPO countries have not yet sent their interceptions for 1995; therefore no statistics can be made ! EPPO will continue to publish yearly reports containing all intercepted consignments received at the headquarters of the Organization.
