The European Commission requested EFSA to conduct a pest categorisation of Acrobasis pirivorella
(Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), a monophagous moth whose larvae exclusively feed on developing buds,
flowers, and fruits of cultivated and wild Pyrus spp. A. pirivorella is a species with reliable methods
available for identification. A. pirivorella occurs in north-east Asia only, causing significant damage in
cultivated pears. It is regulated in the EU by Council Directive 2000/29/EC where it is listed in Annex IIAI.
Within this regulation, plants for planting of Pyrus spp. is a closed pathway. This species has never been
reported by Europhyt. Fruits and cut branches of Pyrus spp. are open pathways. Biotic and abiotic
conditions are conducive for establishment and spread of A. pirivorella in the EU. Were A. pirivorella to
establish, impact on pear production is expected. Considering the criteria within the remit of EFSA to
assess its regulatory plant health status, A. pirivorella meets the criteria for consideration as a potential
Union quarantine pest (it is absent from the EU, potential pathways exist and its establishment would
cause an economic impact). Given that A. pirivorella is not known to occur in the EU, it fails to meet some
of the criteria required for regulated non-quarantine pest (RNQP) status. [-]
