EPPO Reporting Service (524/08) of 1992-06: Ryukyu islands only.
EPPO Reporting Service (2000/105) : at one time thought to be confined to the southern part of the small island of Iriomote. Recent studies show it is present at at least 4 locations on Okinawa, one of the major citrus-producing areas of Japan
EPPO Reporting Service (2006/084) : also in adjacent islands forming part of Kagoshima prefecture, and thus in Kyushu (but not the 'mainland').
EPPO Reporting Service (2022/156) : in islands in Okinawa prefecture and Kagoshima prefecture.
