EPPO Reporting Service (2004/163) : another outbreak, on Acer and Quercus rubra, in St Anne sur Brivet near St-Nazaire (Loire-Atlantique). Under eradication

EPPO Reporting Service (2005/003) : in relation to preceding report, larvae found on Quercus rubra have been confirmed as not A. glabripennis by molecular analysis. Identification is under way.

EPPO Reporting Service (2006/096) : still under eradication. Number of infested trees found continues to diminish, and no outliers are found, so successful eradication is considered feasible.
