From country itself (1992): South Australia, two records only; on Cymbidium and Pentas lanceolata.
In 2011, Biosecurity Australia explained that ToRSV has only been detected twice in Australia (see above). Both detections were made in ornamentals and no evidence of spread was recorded. Infected plants have been removed and no new detections have been made since the 1980s during surveys. It is now considered that ToRVS has been eradicated from Australia. This was confirmed on the IPPC website in 2013.
