Comments
EPPO Reporting Service (2005/005) : introduced into China at the end of the 20th century. This RS does not give details of distribution in China, but CABPESTCD gives records at least for northern China in general, and for Anhui, Hebei and Zhejiang in particular.

EPPO Reporting Service (2006/062) : first found in Hebei in 1988. Serious pest for China, not containable. Now in 12 provinces, but will probably not extend to the far north (Heilongjiang, northern Jilin) or mountainous areas (Sichuan, Yunnan), or the dry interior (Neimenggu, Gansu).
