Chionaspis pinifoliae(PHECPI)
Distribution details in United Kingdom
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated
2020: Absent, unreliable record
C. pinifoliae has been listed as present in the United Kingdom (Nakahara, 1982; Miller, 1996; Danzig and Pellizzari, 1998; Miller and Davidson, 2005; Watler and Stahevitch, 1992). This report is based on an interception in 1956 which could therefore have originated from another country (D. Miller, pers. comm.) According to Watson (2002), “In spite of records published in Nakahara, 1982, and Danzig and Pellizzari, 1998, C. pinifoliae is not present in the United Kingdom (C.P. Malumphy, Central Science Laboratory, UK, pers. comm.)”. In addition, in the UK Plant Health Risk Register (2021) C. pinifoliae is considered absent from the United Kingdom.
