Pest Risk Assessment for Ananas comosus from Indonesia

Ver. 1.0 April 10, 2019 1

Executive Summary The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) prepared this risk assessment to examine plant pest risks associated with importing commercially-produced fruit of pineapple, Ananas comosus (Bromeliaceae), for consumption from Indonesia into the United States and Territories. Based on the market access request submitted by Indonesia, we considered the pathway to include the following processes and conditions: whole pineapple fruit with or without the crown that has been washed, wax-coated, and manually dried. The pineapple fruit will be shipped year-round in pre-cooled containers at 7-9 °C. The risk ratings in this assessment are contingent upon the application of all components of the pathway as described in this document. Based on the scientific literature, port-of-entry pest interception data, and information from the government of Indonesia, we developed a list of quarantine pests that are known to occur in Indonesia (on any host) and to be associated with A. comosus (anywhere in the world). Of these, we found nine organisms that have a reasonable likelihood of being associated with the commodity following harvesting from the field and prior to any post-harvest processing and thus are potentially able to follow the pathway. We assessed the pest risk potential of these organisms and determined that Dolichotetranychus floridanus (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) and Eutetranychus orientalis (Acari: Tetranychidae) are not candidates for risk management because they do not meet the threshold to likely cause unacceptable consequences of introduction. The remaining seven organisms met the threshold for unacceptable consequences of introduction and had a non-negligible likelihood of introduction. We therefore consider these pests to be candidates for risk management: Pest type Taxonomy Scientific name Likelihood of

Pest Risk Assessment for Ananas comosus from Indonesia

Ver. 1.0 April 10, 2019 3

1. Introduction 1.1. Background This document was prepared by the Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory of Science and Technology, USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ), to evaluate the pest risk associated with the importation of commercially-produced fresh fruit of Ananas comosus (L.) Merr. (pineapple) for consumption from Indonesia into the United States and Territories (hereafter referred to as the PRA area). This is a qualitative risk assessment, meaning that the likelihood and consequences of pest introduction are expressed as qualitative ratings rather than in numerical terms. Methodology and rating criteria used are detailed in the Guidelines for Plant Pest Risk Assessment of Imported Fruit and Vegetable Commodities (PPQ, 2012). This methodology is consistent with guidelines provided by the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) in the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) No. 11, “Pest Risk Analysis for Quarantine Pests, Including Analysis of Environmental Risks and Living Modified Organisms” (IPPC, 2017). The use of biological and phytosanitary terms is consistent with ISPM No. 5, “Glossary of Phytosanitary Terms” (IPPC, 2018). As defined in ISPM No. 11, this document comprises Stage 1 (Initiation) and Stage 2 (Risk Assessment) of risk analysis. Stage 3 (Risk Management) will be covered in a separate document. 1.2. Initiating event The importation of fruits and vegetables for consumption into the United States is regulated under Title 7 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 319.56 (7 CFR §319.56). Under this regulation, the entry of pineapple from Indonesia into the PRA area is not authorized. This commodity risk assessment was initiated due to a request by the Indonesian Agricultural Quarantine Agency, Ministry of Agriculture to change the Federal regulation to allow entry (IAQA, 2017). 1.3. Determination of the necessity of a weed risk assessment for the commodity We determined that a weed risk assessment is not needed for Ananas comosus, pineapple because it is already enterable into the United States from other countries (FAVIR, 2019). 1.4. Description of the pathway A pathway is “any means that allows the entry or spread of a pest” (IPPC, 2018). In the context of this risk assessment, the pathway is the commodity to be imported, together with all the processes the commodity undergoes, from production through importation and distribution, that may have an impact on pest risk. In this risk assessment, the specific pathway of concern is the importation of fresh A. comosus fruit for consumption from Indonesia into the PRA area. The movement of this commodity provides a potential pathway for the introduction and spread of plant pests. The following description of this pathway focuses on the conditions that may affect plant pest risk, including morphological and physiological characteristics of the commodity, as well as processes that the

Pest Risk Assessment for Ananas comosus from Indonesia

Ver. 1.0 April 10, 2019 4

commodity will undergo from production in Indonesia through importation and distribution in the PRA area. These conditions provided the basis for creating the pest list and assessing the likelihood of introduction of the pests selected for further analysis. Hence, the risk ratings in this risk assessment are contingent upon the application of all components of the pathway as described. 1.4.1. Description of the commodity Whole fresh pineapple fruit with or without the crown (IAQA, 2016). 1.4.2. Production and harvest procedures in the exporting area Harvest will occur approximately five months after the forcing stage, during which flowering is induced in the plant using ethylene or ethephon (IAQA, 2016). The fruits will be harvested when the pineapple eyes at the bottom of the fruits start to turn yellow, stems start to wrinkle, and the distinctive fruit aroma is present (IAQA, 2016). Harvesting will be done either by hand or mechanically (IAQA, 2016). 1.4.3. Post-harvest procedures in the exporting area Pineapple fruits will be assessed for ripeness and appearance, including cleanliness, absence of blemishes or damage, and absence of pests. Fruits will be washed, wax-coated, and manually dried, then graded and sorted (IAQA, 2016). 1.4.4. Shipping and storage conditions Pineapple fruits will be shipped in containers pre-cooled to between 7 and 9 °C (IAQA, 2016). 2. Pest List and Pest Categorization The pest list is a compilation of all quarantine pests for the PRA area that are present in Indonesia (on any host) and associated with A. comosus (anywhere in the world). Species on the pest list with a reasonable likelihood of being present on pineapple fruit at the time of harvest could follow the pathway into the PRA area and are therefore assessed in more detail to determine their pest risk potential. Pests are considered to be of regulatory significance if they are actionable at U.S. ports of entry. 2.1. Pests considered but not included on the pest list 2.1.1. Pests with weak evidence for association with the commodity or presence in the export area Arthropods: Cryptoblabes gnidiella (Milliere) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) was listed as associated with pineapple on U.S. interception records prior to 2000 (Yehuda et al., 1992). We found no other information in the literature associating C. gnidiella with pineapple, so we did not include C. gnidiella on the pest list. Metamasius dimidiatipennis (Jekel) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) was labeled as a synonymized genus (Sphenophorus sp.) in a British museum collection, with the location of collection indicated as Java (Vaurie, 1966). We found no further information in the literature indicating that M. dimidiatipennis is present in Indonesia, so we did not include M. dimidiatipennis on the pest list.

Pseudococcus cryptus Hempel (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) was associated with pineapple in a single interception record in India (Williams, 2004). We found no other information in the literature associating P. cryptus with pineapple, so we did not include P. cryptus on the pest list. Scapanes australis (Boisduval) (Coleoptera: Dynastidae) is reported to infest pineapple in a reference from Smee (1965) (reviewed in CABI, 2019). The association of S. australis with pineapple is based on the general life history of Oryctes rhinoceros, and the host range is attributed to rhinoceros beetles in general (Smee, 1965). We found no further evidence in the literature for this host association, so we did not include S. australis on the pest list. Spodoptera exempta Walker (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) was associated with pineapple in an Australian risk assessment for the importation of fresh pineapple (AFFA, 2002). We found no further evidence in the literature for this host association, so we did not include S. exempta on the pest list. Stenocatantops splendens (Thunberg) (Orthoptera: Acrididae) was reported as a pest of pineapple (Nafus and Schreiner, 1999), but no other information was provided. We found no further evidence in the literature for this host association, so we did not include S. splendens on the pest list. Nematodes: Hoplolaimus seinhorsti Luc was reported as a pest of pineapple (CABI, 2019). We were unable to find primary evidence supporting the association of this nematode with pineapple, so we did not assess it any further. Fungi: Annellolacinia dinemasporioides Sutton has been reported to be associated with pineapple (Frohlich et al., 1993; Sutton, 1964.) We found no evidence of pathogenicity or damage caused by this fungus. Furthermore, A. dinemasporioides has been found on decaying leaves of pineapple (Whitton et al., 2012), which suggests that this fungus may be a saprophyte. Due to the uncertainty about the pathogenic status of this fungus, we did not consider it for further assessment. Fusarium polyphialidicum Marasas, P.E. Nelson, Toussoun & P.S. van Wyk has been isolated from vanilla in Indonesia (Farr and Rossman, 2019) and from pineapple fruit (Stępień et al., 2013). It has also been isolated from plant debris in soil (Marasas et al., 1988). We found no evidence that this fungus is a plant pathogen. Abbas and Ocamb (1995) and Stępień (2013) suggest it is most likely a saprophyte. As a result, we did not include this fungus on the pest list. Marasmius palmivorus Sharples (Desjardin) (comb. prov.) can be a plant-parasitic or a saprophytic fungus (Dutta and Acharya, 2018). We found concrete evidence of this species parasitizing Elaies guineensis (oil palm) (Pong et al., 2012) and Lagerstroemia speciosa (Dutta and Acharya, 2018). Ananas comosus is listed as a host of this fungus in CABI (2019) and Farr and Rossman (2019). We were unable, however, to find primary literature describing pineapple disease caused by this fungus, so we did not assess it further. Bacteria: Acetobacter aceti (Pasteur) Beijerinck and Gluconobacter oxydans (Henneberg) DeLey are reported to be associated with pineapple fruit (IAQA, 2016). Their roles as pathogens,

however, have not been proven (Kado, 2003; Cha et al, 1997), so we did not assess these bacteria any further. 2.1.2. Organisms with non-quarantine status We found evidence of the organisms listed in the Appendix being associated with A. comosus and present in Indonesia; however, because these organisms are not quarantine pests for the United States, we did not include them in Table 1 of this risk assessment. Armored scales (Hemiptera: Diaspididae) are highly unlikely to establish via the pathway of fruits and vegetables for consumption due to their very limited ability to disperse to new host plants (Miller et al., 1985; PERAL, 2007). For this reason, armored scales are considered non-actionable when intercepted at U.S. ports of entry on fruits and vegetables for consumption (NIS, 2008) and are not included in Table 1. Instead, these insects are listed in the appendix. 2.1.3. Organisms identified only to the genus level In commodity import risk assessments, the taxonomic unit for pests selected for evaluation beyond the pest categorization stage is usually the species (IPPC, 2017), as we focus assessments on organisms for which biological information is available. Therefore, generally, we do not assess risk for organisms identified only to the genus level, in particular if the genus in question is reported in the import area. Many genera contain several or more species, and we cannot know if the unidentified species occurs in the import area and, consequently, whether it has actionable regulatory status for the import area. On the other hand, if the genus in question is absent from the import area, any unidentified organisms in the genus can have actionable status; however, because such an organism has not been fully identified, we cannot properly analyze its likelihood and consequences of introduction. In light of these issues, we usually do not include organisms identified only to the genus level in the main pest list. Instead, we address them separately in this sub-section. The information here can be used by risk managers to determine if measures beyond those intended to mitigate fully identified pests are warranted. Often, mitigation measures developed for identified pests will be effective against the pests for which we have little information, but only risk managers can make this judgement. For this risk assessment, we identified the following organisms identified only to the genus level that are reported on Ananas comosus in Indonesia. They include Atherigona sp. (Diptera: Muscidae), Dolichotetranychus sp. (Acari: Tenuipalpidae), Erwinia sp., Phytophthora spp. (Oomycetes, Pythiales), and Pseudomonas sp. (IAQA, 2016). 2.2. Pest list In Table 1, we list the quarantine pests that occur in Indonesia on any host and are associated with pineapple fruit, whether in Indonesia or elsewhere in the world. For each pest, we indicate 1) the part of the imported plant species with which the pest is generally associated and 2) whether the pest has a reasonable likelihood of being associated, in viable form, with the commodity following harvesting from the field and prior to any post-harvest processing. We developed this pest list based on the scientific literature, port-of-entry pest interception data, and information provided by the government of Indonesia. Pests in shaded rows are pests identified

2.3. Pests selected for further analysis We identified nine pests for further analysis (Table 2). All of these organisms are quarantine pests for the United States and have a reasonable likelihood of being associated with pineapple fruit at the time of harvest and remaining with the fruit, in viable form, throughout the harvesting process. Table 2. Pests selected for further analysis.

Parasa lepida Setothosea asigna

Lepidoptera: Noctuidae Spodoptera litura 3. Assessing Pest Risk Potential 3.1. Introduction For each pest selected for further analysis, we estimate its overall pest risk potential. Risk is described by the likelihood of an adverse event, the magnitude of the consequences, and uncertainty. In this risk assessment, we first determine for each pest if there is an endangered area within the PRA area. The endangered area is defined as the portion of the import area where ecological factors favor the establishment of the pest and where the presence of the pest will result in economically important losses. Once an endangered area has been determined, the overall risk of each pest is then determined with two separate components: 1) the likelihood of its introduction into the endangered area on the imported commodity (i.e., the likelihood of an adverse event) and 2) the consequences of its introduction (i.e., the magnitude of the consequences). In general, we assess both of these components for each pest. If we determine that the risk of either component is negligible, however, assessing the other is not necessary because the overall pest risk potential will be negligible regardless of the result of the second component. For example, if we determine that pest introduction is highly unlikely, we do not assess the consequences of it being introduced. The likelihood and consequences of introduction are assessed using different approaches. For the consequences of introduction, we determine if the pest meets the threshold (Yes/No) of being likely to cause unacceptable losses. We base that determination on the physical damage the pest is likely to cause and/or the proportion of exports likely to be disrupted, rather than on an absolute value or amount of monetary loss. The likelihood of introduction is based on the likelihoods of entry and establishment. We qualitatively assess risk using the ratings Negligible, Low, Medium, and High. The risk factors comprising the model for likelihood of introduction are interdependent and, therefore, the model is multiplicative rather than additive. Thus, if any one risk element is rated as Negligible, then

Page 14: Importation of Ananas comosus (Pineapple) fruit from ...

Pest Risk Assessment for Ananas comosus from Indonesia

Ver. 1.0 April 10, 2019 13

the overall likelihood will be Negligible. For the overall likelihood of introduction risk rating, we define the different categories as follows:

High: Pest introduction is highly likely to occur. Medium: Pest introduction is possible, but for that to happen, the exact combination of

required events needs to occur. Low: Pest introduction is unlikely to occur because one or more of the required events

are unlikely to happen, or the full combination of required events is unlikely to align properly in time and space.

Negligible: Pest introduction is highly unlikely to occur given the exact combination of events required for successful introduction.

3.2. Assessment results 3.2.1. Bactrocera dorsalis We determined the overall likelihood of introduction of B. dorsalis to be High and that its establishment in the PRA area is likely to cause unacceptable impacts. We present the results of this assessment in the following tables. Determination of the portion of the United States and Territories endangered by B. dorsalis Climatic suitability Bactrocera dorsalis has been reported from Bhutan, Cambodia, China,

India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, Italy, and the United States (Hawaii), as well as from various countries in Africa and Oceania (CABI, 2019; Wan et al., 2012; Nugnes, 2018). Based on a comparison of the distribution of B. dorsalis with a global map of Plant Hardiness Zones (Magarey et al., 2008), we estimated that this fruit fly could establish in Plant Hardiness Zones 9-13 in the United States.

Potential hosts at risk in PRA Area

Bactrocera dorsalis has been recorded on more than 150 plant species, including Citrus spp., Psidium guajava (guava), Mangifera indica (mango), Carica papaya (papaya), Persea americana (avocado), Solanum lycopersicum (tomato), Prunus armeniaca (apricot), Prunus persica (peach), Pyrus spp. (pear), and Ficus spp. (fig), all of which occur in the PRA area (Weems, 1964).

Economically important hosts at riska

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include citrus, peach, pear, and tomato (Weems, 1964).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Damage caused by B. dorsalis consists of punctures from adults laying eggs and damage to the fruit pulp from larvae feeding and tunneling (Ye and Liu, 2005). Heavy infestations can cause major losses in fruit production (Drew and Hancock, 1994; White and Elson-Harris, 1992).

Defined Endangered Area

Based on its current distribution and the distribution of its host plants in the PRA area, we define the area endangered by Bactrocera dorsalis as those areas of the United States and Territories within Plant Hardiness Zones 9-13 where it does not already occur.

a As defined by ISPM No. 11, supplement 2, “economically important hosts” refers to both commercial and non-market (environmental) plants (IPPC, 2017).

Likelihood of Entry Risk Element A1: Pest prevalence on the harvested commodity (= the baseline rating for entry)

High MC Bactrocera dorsalis has been reported as a pest of pineapple (Lin et al., 2013; Hui, 2001). We found no information on any factors that would limit its prevalence on the commodity.

Risk Element A2: Likelihood of surviving post-harvest processing before shipment

MC Bactrocera dorsalis larvae feed inside of the fruit (Steiner, 1957). Although puncture marks produced from laying eggs may be visible on the fruit surface, it is often impossible to recognize fruit fly-infested fruit (White and Elson-Harris, 1992). For these reasons, we did not change the rating.

3.2.2. Darna pallivitta We determined the overall likelihood of introduction of D. pallivitta to be Low and we determined that its establishment in the PRA area is likely to cause unacceptable impacts. We present the results of this assessment in the following tables. Determination of the portion of the United States and Territories endangered by Darna pallivitta Climatic suitability Darna pallivitta is native to parts of Asia (Nagamine and Epstein,

2007) and is invasive in Japan (Mito and Uesugi, 2004) and the United States (Hawaii) (Nagamine and Epstein, 2007). It has been reported from China, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Taiwan (Holloway et al., 1987). Based on a comparison of the distribution of D. pallivitta with a global map of Plant Hardiness Zones (Magarey et al., 2008), we estimated that this moth could establish in Plant Hardiness Zones 10-13 in the United States.

Potential hosts at risk in PRA Area

Darna pallivitta feeds on over 40 species of plants. Hosts include Adenostemma spp., Averrhoa carambola (starfruit), Breynia spp., Caryota sp., Cocos nucifera (coconut), Coffea arabica (coffee), Elaeis guineensis (African oil palm), Ficus spp., Phoenix spp., Zea mays (corn), and members of the Poaceae (Chun et al., 2005; Hara et al., 2013; Holloway et al., 1987).

Economically important hosts at riska

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include fig and corn and other grasses (Hara et al., 2013; Holloway et al., 1987).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Darna pallivitta larvae feed on the leaves of its host. In its native range, it is considered a minor pest of palms and of corn and other grasses (Hara et al., 2013). In Hawaii, D. pallivitta established rapidly and has caused extensive damage to agricultural and nursery crops and ornamental plants (Chun et al., 2005; Hara et al., 2013).

Defined Endangered Area

Based on its current distribution and the distribution of its host plants in the PRA area, we define the area endangered by Darna pallivitta to be those areas of the United States within Plant Hardiness Zones 10-13 where it does not already occur. This corresponds to parts of California, Florida, southern Texas and the U.S. Territories.

Likelihood of Establishment Risk Element B1: Likelihood of coming into contact with host material in the endangered area

Low MC Darna pallivitta larvae can move from plant to plant, and adults can fly (Kishimoto, 2006). This moth develops on weedy, ornamental, and agricultural hosts (Nagamine and Epstein, 2007). Only eggs and early instar larvae are likely to remain with the commodity post-harvest. Caterpillars are not likely to be able to travel far to new hosts. For establishment to occur, multiple individuals of the pest would have to successfully develop to the late larval instar stage on the leaves of the crowns discarded into the environment, pupate in the soil, emerge as an adult, and find a mate and a suitable host plant to lay eggs. Considering the low likelihood of all these conditions being met, we rated this risk element Low.

MC Darna pallivitta is a pest of agricultural and nursery plants, and the larvae damage leaves by feeding on them (Hara et al., 2013). Feeding damage significantly reduces the value of ornamental and landscape plants in Hawaii (Chun et al., 2005). Additionally, this species presents a health and safety concern for agricultural and nursery workers due to the possibility for painful stings from the spines of the larvae upon contact (Hara et al., 2013).

Economically important hosts at riska

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include citrus and mango (Li et al., 1997; CABI, 2019).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Darna trima is most likely the species involved in outbreaks in oil palm plantations in Malaysia and Indonesia (Borneo) (Holloway et al., 1987). At populations of over 2,000 larvae per frond, young plants are severely damaged, and mature plants can be defoliated (Holloway et al., 1987). Other palm species are infested to a lesser extent, including coconut and sago palms (CABI, 2019).

Based on a comparison of the current distribution of D. floridanus with a global map of Plant Hardiness Zones (Magarey et al., 2008), we estimated that this mite could establish in Plant Hardiness Zones 8-13 in the United States.

Potential hosts at risk in PRA Area

Dolichotetranychus floridanus is primarily a pest of pineapple (Jeppson et al., 1975) but has also been reported from Arundo donax (giant reed) (Ghai and Shenhmar, 1984), Elettaria cardamomum (cardamom), bamboo, and grasses (Petty et al., 2002).

Economically important hosts at riska

Pineapple is the only economically important host at risk from this pest. It cultivated in Plant Hardiness Zones 9-13 in Hawaii, where the mite already occurs, and in the Northern Mariana Islands (SIPMC, 2017).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Dolichotetranychus floridanus is a pest of pineapple and generally feeds on the tender tissue of basal leaves, particularly on the crown (Rohrbach and Johnson, 2003). Feeding damage caused by D. floridanus appears to be insignificant, but injuries could allow entrance of pathogens (Jeppson et al., 1975). Damage to the leaves can result in brown to black necrotic lesions, dehydration, or orange patches at the base of the leaves (Petty et al., 2002). We found no evidence of D. floridanus being a pest of any other plants.

Ratinga Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Likelihood of Entry Risk Element A1: Pest prevalence on the harvested commodity (= the baseline rating for entry)

Low

U Eutetranychus orientalis is primarily a pest of citrus species (Jeppson et al., 1975). It damages the upper surface of fully grown leaves on its host plants and produces webbing that gives the leaves a dirty appearance (Singh and Raghuraman, 2011). Eutetranychus orientalis is associated with A. comosus from a collection record in South Africa (Meyer, 1987), but evidence is lacking about its effects on pineapple.

Risk Element A2: Likelihood of surviving post-harvest processing before shipment

Low

MC Eutetranychus orientalis is an external feeder that is likely to become dislodged by washing (Vincent et al., 2004). Mites are generally visible, particularly in large infestations. Large infestations can cause visible damage, but individuals may escape detection depending upon developmental stage. (Avidov and Harpaz, 1969).

Risk Element A3: Likelihood of surviving transport and storage conditions of the consignment

Low

MU Fresh pineapple fruits from Indonesia will be shipped in precooled containers at 7-9 °C (IAQA, 2016). We found no evidence suggesting that the population would decrease or be eliminated at this temperature range. Therefore, the rating remains unchanged.

Likelihood of Establishment Risk Element B1: Likelihood of coming into contact with host material in the endangered area

Low MC The biology of E. orientalis influences the chance of finding hosts and establishing in the United States. Tetranychid mites disperse through crawling and on the wind (Huffaker et al. 1969), which affects the range of dispersal. Establishment can only occur when the imported fruit is in close proximity to a host plant. Because the commodity is fruit for consumption, this is unlikely to occur. Therefore, the chance of this mite coming into contact with host material is low.

Risk Element B2: Likelihood of arriving in the endangered area

High

MU Slightly more than 25 percent of the U.S. population lives in the area expected to be endangered by E. orientalis (PERAL, 2015). Assuming that demand is tied to population size, we believe the likely hood of E. orientalis arriving in the endangered area is high.

Direct Impacts Risk Element C1: Damage potential in the endangered area

No

MC As mentioned, E. orientalis is an important pest of citrus. Severe damage, such as defoliation and prevention of fruit set, however, appears to be very rare. It occurs only with severe infestations and dry environmental conditions (USDA-APHIS, 1983). Typical damage from this pest is minor, such as the appearance of gray leaf spots and chlorotic leaves (Jeppson et al., 1975). It is very similar to damage by other mites already present in the United States. Additionally, this mite is likely to be controlled by practices already in place for other mites in the United States. We conclude that the introduction of E. orientalis in the endangered area is unlikely to result in 10 percent or greater yield losses in any commodity, including citrus. Its presence in the United States is not likely to cause significant increases in costs of production.

Trade Impacts Risk Element D1: Export markets at risk

No

MC Eutetranychus orientalis is primarily a pest of citrus. It is already present in most of the countries where U.S. citrus is exported, except Canada, where it is unlikely to be able to establish (USDA-FAS, 2018). We determined that the value of exported commodities likely to carry this pest to countries where this pest does not occur and could potentially establish is less than 10 percent of the total export value of the commodity.

Risk Element D2: Likelihood of trading partners imposing additional phytosanitary requirements

No

MU According to CABI (2019), the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) is considering listing E. orientalis on the A2 quarantine pest list. Some countries that import citrus from the United States, already require an additional declaration that the commodity be free from mites such as Brevipalpus lewisi and B. phoenicis (USDA-APHIS, 2018). We suspect that E. orientalis would be handled similarly if it were to establish in the continental United States.

3.2.6. Parasa lepida We determined the overall likelihood of introduction of P. lepida to be Medium and its establishment in the PRA area is likely to cause unacceptable impacts. We present the results of this assessment in the following tables. Determination of the portion of the United States and Territories endangered by Parasa lepida Climatic suitability Parasa lepida is occurs in Bangladesh (CABI, 2019), China, India,

Indonesia (Desmier de Chenon, 1982), Japan (Yamazaki et al., 2013), Laos (CABI, 2019), Malaysia (Desmier de Chenon, 1982), Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan (CABI, 2019), Papua New Guinea, Sri Lanka (Desmier de Chenon, 1982), Thailand (CABI, 2019), and Vietnam (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). Based on a comparison of the distribution of P. lepida with a global map of Plant Hardiness Zones (Magarey et al., 2008), we estimated that this moth could establish in Plant Hardiness Zones 8-13 in the United States.

Potential hosts at risk in PRA Area

Parasa lepida is most harmful to Cocos nucifera (coconut) (Demier de Chenon, 1982). Other host plants include Camellia sinensis (tea), Cassia spp., Coffea spp. (coffee), Eugenia spp. (stopper), Gardenia spp., Mangifera spp. (mango), Metroxylon spp., Musa spp. (banana), Nephelium spp., Nypa spp., Rosa spp. (rose), and Theobroma cacao (cocoa) (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). In Japan, where P. lepida is invasive, it has also been reported to feed on Acer spp. (maple), Diospyros kaki (Japanese persimmon), Ginkgo biloba (ginkgo), Liquidambar spp. (sweetgum), Magnolia kobus (Kobus magnolia), Morella rubra (red bayberry), Robinia pseudoacacia (black locust), Triadica sebifera (Chinese tallow), and Zelkova serrata (Japanese elm) (Yamazaki et al., 2013).

Economically important hosts at riska

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include coconut, other palms, tea, rose, and maple (Yamazaki et al., 2013).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

In Indonesia, P. lepida larvae severely infest leaves of coconut, causing complete defoliation of individual trees (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). In Japan, it has increased its host range to include tree species found in residential neighborhoods, parks, and gardens (Yamamzaki et al. 2013). Up to 80 percent of individual host tree species in Japan were found to have cocoons of P. lepida on them (Yamazaki et al. 2013).

Defined Endangered Area

Based on its current distribution and the distribution of its host plants in the PRA area, we define the area endangered by P. lepida to be Plant Hardiness Zones 8-13 in the United States, which corresponds to parts of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Washington, and the U.S. Territories.

Ratinga Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Likelihood of Entry Risk Element A1: Pest prevalence on the harvested commodity (= the baseline rating for entry)

High MU In India, P. lepida is reported to cause damage in pineapple plantations by feeding on the foliage and pupating in folds of leaves (Butani, 1975). Because P. lepida adults lay many eggs and larvae feed in large groups, critical damage thresholds are often reached (CABI, 2019).

Risk Element A2: Likelihood of surviving post-harvest processing before shipment

Medium

MC Eggs of P. lepida are small, flat, and translucent and are laid side by side in groups of up to 40 on the undersides of leaves (Desmier de Chenon, 1982), which may escape detection during post-harvest processing. The larvae feed on pineapple foliage (Butani, 1975). On other hosts, P. lepida feeds and pupates gregariously and early outbreaks are often localized on individual plants (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). This behavior would make it easier to notice the pest and its damage during culling. Therefore, we reduced the rating to Medium.

Risk Element A3: Likelihood of surviving transport and storage conditions of the consignment

Medium

MU Fresh pineapple fruits from Indonesia will be shipped in precooled containers at 7-9 °C (IAQA, 2016). We found no evidence suggesting that the population would decrease or be eliminated at this temperature range. Therefore, the rating remains unchanged.

Likelihood of Establishment Risk Element B1: Likelihood of coming into contact with host material in the endangered area

Low MC Parasa lepida is polyphagous and feeds on the leaves of its hosts, and adults can fly (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). Adults would likely fly away during harvest processes, so only eggs and early instar larvae would likely to remain with the commodity post-harvest. Caterpillars are not likely to be able to travel far to new hosts. For establishment to occur, multiple individuals of the pest would have to successfully develop to the late instar larval stage on the leaves of the crowns discarded into the environment, pupate in the soil, emerge as an adult, and find a mate and a suitable host plant to lay eggs. Considering the low likelihood of all these conditions being met, we rated this risk element Low.

Risk Element B2: Likelihood of arriving in the endangered area

High

MC Parasa lepida defoliates mature coconut trees, which leads to reduced production (Desmier de Chenon, 1982). The caterpillars can sting (Hossler, 2010), which would affect agriculture and nursery workers. Both of these factors could initiate control efforts, leading to increased production costs.

Climatic suitability Rhabdoscelus obscurus occurs in Australia (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991), Cook Islands (CABI, 2019), Fiji (Tamanikaiyaroi, 1997), French Polynesia (APPPC, 1987), the United States (Guam and Hawaii) (Muniappan et al., 2004), Indonesia, Micronesia, New Caledonia, Palau (CABI, 2019), Papua New Guinea, (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991), Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, and Vanuatu (CABI, 2019). Based on a comparison of the distribution of R. obscurus with a global map of Plant Hardiness Zones (Magarey et al., 2008), we estimated that this species could establish in Plant Hardiness Zones 10-13 in the United States.

Potential hosts at risk in PRA Area

Rhabdoscelus obscurus is primarily a pest of sugarcane and palms and has been reported on the following species: Archontophoenix alexandrae (king palm), Areca catechu (areca palm) (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991), Carica papaya (papaya) (Muniappan et al., 2004), Caryota urens (fishtail palm), Cocos nucifera (coconut) (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991), Elaeis guineensis (oil palm) (Desmier de Chenon et al., 2001), Metroxylon sagu (sago palm) (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991), Musa sp.

Economically important hosts at riska

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include sugarcane, corn, and various palms (Halfpapp and Storey, 1991; Muniappan et al., 2004).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Rhabdoscelus obscurus was considered a serious pest of sugarcane in Hawaii as early as 1865 (Williams, 1931). Control was achieved, however, by the introduction of the fly, Lixophaga sphenophori, for biocontrol (Napompeth et al., 1972). Palms and papaya have been reported to be infested, but the damage is less severe since R. obscurus is attracted to decaying portions of these hosts (Williams, 1931).

Defined Endangered Area

Based on its current distribution and the distribution of its host plants in the PRA area, we define the area endangered by R. obscurus to be those areas of the United States within Plant Hardiness Zones 10-13 where it does not already occur. This corresponds to parts of California, Florida, southern Texas, and the U.S. Territories.

Economically important hosts at risk from this pest include cotton, corn, potato, soybean, and brassica vegetables (Ahmad et al., 2013; CABI, 2019).

Pest potential on economically important hosts at risk

Spodoptera litura is one of the most destructive plant pests in Asia due to its high reproductive rate, gregarious feeding behavior of the larvae, and dispersal ability (Ahmad et al., 2013). It is a major pest of field crops grown for food and fiber (CABI, 2019).

Ratinga Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Likelihood of Entry Risk Element A1: Pest prevalence on the harvested commodity (= the baseline rating for entry)

Low MC Spodoptera litura is considered only an occasional pest of pineapple (Petty et al., 2002). We found no other reports of pineapple as a host of S. litura.

Risk Element Risk Rating Uncertainty Ratinga

Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Risk Element A2: Likelihood of surviving post-harvest processing before shipment

Low

MU Spodoptera litura larvae feed gregariously (Ahmad et al., 2013), and feeding damage would likely be noticeable during post-harvest processing and inspection. Furthermore, eggs are noticeable as they are laid in batches and covered in hair scales (EPPO, n.d.). However, because egg masses and some newly hatched larvae may go undetected and survive post-harvest processing we did not change the risk rating.

Risk Element A3: Likelihood of surviving transport and storage conditions of the consignment

Low

MC Fresh pineapple fruits from Indonesia will be shipped in precooled containers at 7-9 °C (IAQA, 2016). We found no evidence suggesting that the population would decrease or be eliminated at this temperature range. Therefore, the rating remains unchanged.

Risk Element A: Overall risk rating for likelihood of entry

Risk Element Risk Rating Uncertainty Ratinga

Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Likelihood of Establishment Risk Element B1: Likelihood of coming into contact with host material in the endangered area

Low

MC Spodoptera litura is highly polyphagous on cultivated and wild hosts (CABI, 2019). Adults would likely fly away during harvest processes, so only eggs and caterpillars would be left on the commodity after post-harvest processing. Caterpillars would not likely travel far to a new host. For establishment to occur, multiple individuals would have to successfully develop to the late larval instar stage on the leaves of pineapple crowns discarded into the environment, pupate, emerge as an adult, and find a mate and a suitable host plant to lay eggs. Considering the low likelihood of all these conditions being met, we rated this risk element Low.

Risk Element B2: Likelihood of arriving in the endangered area

High

MC More than 25 percent of the U.S. population lives in the area expected to be endangered by S. litura (PERAL, 2015). Assuming that demand is tied to population size, we believed the likelihood of S. litura arriving in the endangered area is high.

criteria? (Y/N)

Uncertainty Ratinga

Justification for rating and explanation of uncertainty (and other notes as necessary)

Direct Impacts Risk Element C1: Damage potential in the endangered area

Yes

MU Spodoptera litura has caused damage to peanuts in Taiwan (Tuan et al., 2014) and to cotton crops in Pakistan (Ahmad et al., 2007). While growers in the endangered area routinely control similar pests, such has Helicoverpa zea (Brickle et al., 2001) and Heliothis virescens (Luttrell, 1994). The altered application timing needed for certain insecticides and the possibility of resistance could result in higher production costs from this insect.

Risk Element C2: Spread potential

Yes MU Male S. litura adults have been documented as flying up to 5.9 km in a single night (Wakamura et al., 1990).

Risk Element C: Pest introduction is likely to cause unacceptable direct impacts

Yes N/A

Conclusion Is the pest likely to cause unacceptable consequences in the PRA area?

Yes N/A

aC=Certain, MC=Moderately Certain, MU=Moderately Uncertain, U=Uncertain 4. Summary and Conclusions of Risk Assessment Of the organisms associated with A. comosus (pineapple) worldwide and present in Indonesia, we identified nine that are quarantine pests for all or part of the United States and Territories and have a reasonable likelihood of being associated with the commodity following harvesting from the field and prior to any post-harvest processing. We further evaluated these organisms for their likelihood of introduction (i.e., entry plus establishment) and their potential consequences of introduction. Of the pests selected for further analysis, we determined that two are not candidates for risk management because they are unlikely to cause unacceptable consequences of introduction. We summarize the results for these pests in Table 3. All the other pests selected for further analysis are candidates for risk management because they are likely to cause

unacceptable consequences of introduction, and they received a likelihood of introduction risk rating above Negligible. We summarize the results for these pests in Table 4. Detailed examination and choice of appropriate phytosanitary measures to mitigate pest risk are part of the pest risk management phase within APHIS and are not addressed in this document. Table 3.
