Pest categorisation of Leucinodes orbonalis

Abstract The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the eggplant fruit and shoot borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guenée, (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), for the territory of the EU. L. orbonalis is a tropical and sub‐tropical species native to Asia and Australia with India considered it...
