Scanning,screening,and preliminary analysis of global major invasive forest insect pests
There is an urgent need globally to strengthen information communications on invasive forest pests and to improve the ability to prevent biological invasions vigorously.To know the current invasion situation of global forest insect pests and analyze the risks of potential invasive forest insect pests in China,we systematically scanned various information resources on invasive species and emerging plant pests worldwide,screened for forest insect pest species,and established a global list of invasive forest insect pests.Then,we analyzed the proportion of species'taxon in the list,and clarified each species'invasion situation globally,regulated situation globally,and their distribution in China.The study obtained 315 global major invasive,emerging,and regulated forest insect pests and obtained information on the species names,taxon,host trees,regulated countries,and invaded countries of all species.At the order level,Coleoptera and Hemiptera accounted for 45.4%and 27.3%of the listed species,respectively.At the family level,Curculionidae accounted for the highest proportion of 25.1%.Among the host trees of 315 pests,35.6%were Pinaceae trees,accounting for the highest proportion.A total of 44 forest pests invaded in or were regulated by more than 10 countries.Among all species,18 species were not included in the Chinese national border bio-safety basic data information resource platform.151 pests were already distributed in China,while 164 were not.Only 48 species of above 164 pests were included in the catalogue of quarantine pests for import plants to the People's Republic of China.This study lays a species information foundation for global early warning of forest invasive pests and establishing a list of potential invasive forest pests in China.
