Hosts
Important note about the classification of host plants in GD:
Categories have been assigned by the EPPO Secretariat on the basis of available data at the time of entry. They correspond to a qualitative evaluation of the importance of the host plant for the pest concerned and remain indicative only.

* Lyrene PM, Payne JA (1992) Blueberry gall midge: a pest on rabbiteye blueberry in Florida. Proceedings of the Florida state horticultural society 105, 297-299. ------- As Vaccinium ashei. ------- A recent taxonomic study separated V. ashei from V. virgatum (Weakley et al., 2024). It was not possible to determine to which of these species host records made before this separation related to, and both V. virgatum and V. ashei were considered as hosts for this pest (EPPO Secretariat, 2025-04). | ||
