Comments
EPPO Reporting Service (2000/171) : found in one sweet corn field in Baden-Württemberg. All larvae were collected and destroyed. Quarantine area established, and currently being monitored. Overwintering seems very unlikely, so record is almost certainly transient.

Eradication was officially confirmed by the NPPO in 2018.
