Amendment to Australia's List of Trogoderma Species of Biosecurity Concern
This addendum is to notify trading partners of changes to Australia's List of Trogoderma Species of Biosecurity Concern, under the Biosecurity Act 2015 (available at: https://www.agriculture.gov.au/biosecurity-trade/policy/legislation/list-trogoderma-species)
Three species have been newly added to the list:
• Trogoderma serraticorne
• Trogoderma teukton
• Trogoderma yunnaeunsis
These species (including all relevant synonyms and subordinate taxa) are of biosecurity concern to Australia due to their potential to enter via imported plant products, establish and spread in suitable conditions, and cause economic consequences to Australia's grain and stored product industries.
This amendment impacts the following existing biosecurity requirements for imported plant products by expanding the scope of Trogoderma species subject to pre-export inspection and certification:
• Prior to export, consignments of plant products must be inspected by the National Plant Protection Organisation (NPPO) of the exporting country and found free from evidence of any Trogoderma species of biosecurity concern, including khapra beetle (Trogoderma granarium).
• A phytosanitary certificate must include the following additional declaration
"Representative samples were inspected and found free from evidence of any species of Trogoderma (whether live, dead, or exuviae) in Australia's list of Trogoderma species of biosecurity concern."
The requirements above apply to:
• high-risk plant products when exported from any country that is not listed as a khapra beetle target-risk country
• other-risk plant products when exported from all countries.
If any Trogoderma species of biosecurity concern are detected during inspection upon arrival in Australia, or if certification does not verify the absence of the listed Trogoderma species of biosecurity concern in accordance with the above requirements, the consignment will be subject to remedial action which may include re-export.
