Judith Hunt epub Hunt, J: List of Intercepted Plant Pests, 1954

Excerpt from List of Intercepted Plant Pests, 1954: List of Pests Recorded From July 1, 1953, Through June 30, 1954 as Intercepted In, On, or With Plants and Plant Products Entering United States Teritory This report, covering the forty-first year for which interception lists have been issued, summarizes the records of insect pests, plant pathogens, and certain other organisms found in, on, or with plant products (1) imported, (2) Offered for but refused entry, (3) held as ships' stores, etc., and hence not offered for entry through customs, (4) offered for entry for immediate transportation and exportation in bond, and (5) in domestic shipments between the American Virgin Islands, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico and the mainland. Comprising this list are insects and plant diseases of known or potential plant quarantine significance to the United States. Many diseases of particular interest are included even though they are found of general or of limited distribution in the United States. The latter pathogens are the interceptions which are either (1) new to the country of origin, or (2) new to the host plant, or (3) are of such limited distribution in the United States that they are worthy of mention.
