Little known lymantriids of the Russian Far East - potential for movement to other countries of the Pacific region
EPPO Bulletin 32 (3), 477-480
Abstract: Four main characters are associated with the potential of Lymantria dispar for international spread in ships moving from the Russian Far East to other Pacific countries: movement to light, wind dispersal of young larvae, length of egg stage, host range of larvae. Other Far Eastern lymantriid species have been scored for these characters on a 1-5 scale to provide an estimate of the risk of such international spread. Lymantria spp. score highest on this scale, and a few other lymantriids have scores indicating that there is a definite risk. Most of the species scored cannot, however, be adequately assessed for all the characters because of lack of information, indicating the need for further research before an adequate pest risk assessment can be done.
