Event concluded, final report available

The Anses Plant Health Laboratory, Unit of Entomology and Invasive Plants, is the European Reference Laboratory for Insects and Mites, in consortium with AGES. In this context, it organises interlaboratory proficiency tests for the detection of insects and mites, in which EU National Reference Laboratories are required to participate.

This proficiency test aimed to evaluate the capacity of participating laboratories to identify Popillia japonica through the analysis of adult and larval specimens by evaluating the accuracy of their results. For the analyses, the participants had to implement the EPPO PM7/ 74(1) or any other equivalent method
