The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to prepare and deliver risk
assessments for commodities listed in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2019 as ‘High
risk plants, plant products and other objects’. Momordica fruits originating from countries where Thrips
palmi is known to occur qualify as high risk plants. This Scientific Opinion covers the introduction risk
for T. palmi posed by fruits of Momordica charantia L. imported from Honduras, taking into account
the available scientific information, including the technical information provided by the National Service
of Agrifood Health and Safety (SENASA) of Honduras. The risk mitigation measures proposed in the
technical dossier from Honduras were evaluated taking into account the possible limiting factors. An
expert judgement is given on the likelihood of pest freedom taking into consideration the potential
pest pressure in the field, the risk mitigation measures acting on the pest in the field and in the
packinghouse, including uncertainties associated with the assessment. For T. palmi on M. charantia
fruits from Honduras, an expert judgement is given on the likelihood of pest freedom following the
evaluation of the risk mitigation measures acting on T. palmi, including any uncertainties. The Expert
Knowledge Elicitation indicated, with 95% certainty that between 9,406 and 10,000 M. charantia fruits
per 10,000 will be free from T. palmi. [-]
