-         Western potato flea beetle (Epitrix subcrinita LeСonte);

-         Emarginate ips (Ips emarginatus LeСonte);

-         Monterey pine engraver (Pseudips mexicanus Hopkins);

-         Western cherry fruit fly (Rhagoletis indifferens Curran);

Their introduction into the customs territory of the EAEU and their spread on it endangers the quarantine phytosanitary security of the EAEU member States.
