PRA for Melanotus communis

Description

The Panel on Phytosanitary Measures requested the Secretariat, on the basis of a data sheet and a PRA prepared by Dr A. McLeod (CSL, UK), to write a report of a pest risk assessment for the Working Party. This report supports the conclusions of the Panel.

This pest could have some impact on important crops in the EPPO region. Although entry and establishment are somewhat uncertain, this pest would add to the existing wireworm problem in the EPPO region. The addition of M. communis to the A1 List is therefore recommended.
