Distribution details in Ecuador
Current pest situation evaluated by EPPO on the basis of information dated
2014: Absent, confirmed by survey
From NPPO: Absent, confirmed by survey
In 2013, the NPPO of Ecuador officially declared that P. viburni has never occurred on its territory, thus contradicting what has been published on ScaleNet (based on Ben-Dov (1994); Gimper & Miller (1996); Williams & Granara de Willink (1992)). In 2014, the NPPO stated that intensive monitoring carried out in 2013/2014 confirmed the absence of the pest.
