EPPO Bulletin 52 (1), 185-189
Abstract: The invasive Australian pest Glycaspis brimblecombei Moore, 1964 is recorded for the first time in Molise, Liguria and Abruzzo, respectively, based on sampling by the authors in 2014 and observations (photographs) retrieved from the internet which were taken in 2018 and 2021. The records from Molise and Abruzzo are the first ones on the Adriatic side of Italy, east of the Apennines. Furthermore, new records for the country are also provided based on collected specimens and photographs from the web taken between 2011 and 2021.
