EPPO Reporting Service (2010/211) : an incursion of the pest was detected in 2008 in one tomato crop in the municipality of Arenzano (Genova province) in Liguria region. Severe damage was reported but the tomato crop was attacked by K. lycopersicella and Tuta absoluta (so damage could not be attributed to one or the other species). Since this first record in Italy, the pest has not been found again.
