2008年12月16日调查发现,扶桑绵粉蚧Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley在广州市的扶桑(Hibiscus rosa-sinensis)树上多点发生。采用GARP生态位模型分析预测该虫在中国的潜在地理分布,并参照国际上有害生物危险性分析方法,对扶桑绵粉蚧在中国的危险性作出综合评价。结果表明:中国海南、广东、广西、福建、台湾、浙江、江西、湖南、贵州、云南、重庆、湖北、安徽、上海、江苏、山东、河南等17省区的大部分区域,新疆、四川、甘肃、宁夏、陕西、山西、河北、北京、天津、辽宁、内蒙古等11省区的部分地区,都是该虫的适生区。危险性综合评价值为0.886,在中国的危害风险性很大。
Phenacoccus solenopsis Tinsley was founded in many sites in Guangzhou city, Guangdong Province on Hibiscus trees on December 16, 2008. Based on the Genetic Algorithm for Rule-set Prediction Modeling System (GARP), the potential distribution of P. solenopsis in China was predicted. The result indicated that it could occur in most area of 17 provinces including Hainan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian, Taiwan, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Chongqing, Hubei, Anhui, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Shandong and Henan. And it could also occur in part of the following 11 regions including Xinjiang, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, Liaoning and Inner Mongolia. According to the international pest risk analysis method, P. solenopsis is a high risk invasive species to China with risk value 0. 886.
