EPPO Reporting Service (2016/052) : an invalid record has been cited in several media. The misunderstanding goes back to a statement, made on the basis of a personal communication, which was published in 2011 (Dobrowolska et al., 2011) and then quoted by others (Thomas, 2016; Internet, 2016). The NPPO of Sweden has confirmed that the pest has never been found on its territory.
