B. zonata was first recorded in the Kalubia governorate in 1993 on Psidium guajava, and then in the Fayoum governorate. In 1994, it was found in the Alexandria and Giza governorates on different fruit trees in private gardens. By 1997, B. zonata was widespread in Egypt (even present in desert areas such as the oases of Dakhkan Kharga, and Sinai).

EPPO Reporting Service (2000/075) : established in the delta, lower, middle and upper Nile (up to Aswan), to Suez canal in the east. Some areas (north Sinai or oases to the west of the Nile) probably still free. Eradication and control programmes are envisaged
EPPO Reporting Service (2002/108) : whole Nile Delta region, Nile Valley with Kharga and Dakla oases. Sinai peninsula, including north. Eradication no longer considered feasible, except possibly in Sinai peninsula.
