Yes: These species lay eggs into branches and emerging larvae tunnel into new shoots (Filip 1986; Moleas 1988). Adults are twig borers and feeds on shoots and branches and have a long life cycle. Therefore, dormant cuttings may harbour larvae and may provide a pathway for these bostrichids.
Yes: These species occur naturally in temperate climates (Filip 1986; Moleas 1988) and would find both climatic conditions and host plants suitable for survival and establishment in Australia. Independent spread is facilitated by active flying (Fettig 2005). Therefore, these species have the potential to establish and spread in Australia.
|
Yes: Sinoxylon perforans is recorded as infesting 30–40% of grapevines in Romania (Filip 1986) and is becoming a serious pest in Italy (Ragazzini 1996). Sinoxylon sexdentatum has been recorded as causing severe infestations (28%) in a two year old vineyard in Italy (Moleas 1988). Therefore, these pests have the potential for economic consequences in Australia.

Trichoferus campestris Faldermann 1835 [Coleoptera: Cerambycidae]
|
Not known to occur
|
No: This species is a timber borer that has been intercepted in dunnage (Iwata and Yamada 1990; Grebennikov et al. 2010). Borers require thick wood for egg laying and development (Goodwin 2005). Semi-hardwood dormant cuttings are not preferred sites for egg laying and development. Therefore, dormant cuttings do not provide a pathway for this species.

|
Lasioptera vitis Osten Sacken 1862 [Diptera: Cecidomyiidae]
|
Not known to occur
|
No: Eggs are laid either on or in leaves, leaf petioles, tendrils or cluster stems, causing gall formation on these plant parts (Williams et al. 2011). The emerging larvae feed within the gall and later on larvae leave the galls, fall to the soil and pupate. Dormant cuttings are not egg laying sites for gall-forming flies and therefore do not provide a pathway for this pest.

Acia lineatifrons Naude 1926 [Hemiptera]
|
Not known to occur

|
Not known to occur

No: These aphid species overwinter as eggs on their primary hosts (Cammell 1981; Mackenzie and Dixon 1990; OHU 2010) and adults move to secondary hosts, in the summer months and attack the foliage, flowers and twigs of host plants (Mackenzie 1996; Liburd et al. 2004; Graham 2007). Therefore, foliage free dormant cuttings do not provide a pathway for these aphids.

Not known to occur
|
No: Oleander pit scale is found on the leaves, bark, stems and fruit of host plants (Hamon 1977), including grapevines (Ben-Dov et al. 2012). The severity of pit development around the scale is dependent on the susceptibility of host plants (Hamon 1977). Therefore, foliage free dormant cuttings do not provide a pathway for this pest.

Daktulosphaira vitifoliae Fitch 1855 [Hemiptera: Phylloxeridae]
|
Yes (Restricted distribution [Loch and Slack 2007] and under official control [NVHSC 2005]).
|
Yes: Daktulosphaira vitifolii has a complex lifecycle that involves migration from the roots to the leaves and back to the roots (Granett et al. 2001; Forneck and Huber 2009). It is possible that migrating crawlers or overwintering hibernants could be present on grapevine stems. Radicicoles may also feed on stems (Granett et al. 2001) and winged forms lay overwintering eggs beneath the bark on grapevine stems (Buchanan et al. 1994; Granett et al. 2001). Therefore, this pest may be associated with grapevine dormant cuttings.
