The European Commission requested EFSA to conduct a pest categorisation of
Toxoptera citricida
(Hemiptera: Aphididae), an oligophagous aphid developing and reproducing parthenogenetically on
tender leaf and
fl
ower
fl
ush of citrus (Rutaceae).
T. citricida
is a taxonomic entity with reliable methods
available for detection and identi
fi
cation. It is regulated in the EU by Council Directive 2000/29/EC
where it is listed in Annex IIAI as a harmful organism whose introduction and spread into the EU shall
be banned.
T. citricida
is native to tropical regions of Southeast Asia and has spread to most citrus-
growing areas worldwide, except California and the Mediterranean basin, causing signi
fi
cant damage
to citrus as it is the most ef
fi
cient vector of the
Citrus tristeza virus
(CTV).
T. citricida
occurs in Madeira
and, with a restricted distribution, in the north-west of the Iberian Peninsula, mostly on backyard citrus
trees. This may have hindered the effectiveness of the of
fi
cial control measures in these areas. There
are further phytosanitary measures in place in the EU in order to limit entry via traded commodities.
Citrus plants for planting are regulated and are a closed pathway. However, there is uncertainty
regarding host status of some non-rutaceous plants on which this aphid has been recorded and so
other plant genera may provide additional pathways. The EFSA Plant Health Panel concludes that the
establishment of
T. citricida
in the main EU citrus growing areas around the Mediterranean would have
signi
fi
cant impacts because of its ability to vector CTV. Considering the criteria within the remit of EFSA
to assess the status as a potential Union quarantine pest (QP), as a potential protected zone
quarantine pest (PZQP) or as a potential regulated non-quarantine pest (RNQP),
T. citricida
meets with
no uncertainties the criteria assessed by EFSA for consideration as a potential Union QP. [-]
