EPPO (2022): Lal and Naji (1979) reported serious damage on Pinus sp. in Libya, but no details were provided. It is uncertain if the species is currently present there since no additional publications were found. Danzig and Pellizzari (1998) also listed C. pinifoliae as present in Libya based on old observations, i.e. before 1966. This report needs confirmation.
