Specific approval and amendment Approved in 2007-09. Introduction Seven non-European species of Margarodes have been recorded on the roots of grapevine: Margarodes vitis (Philippi) in Brazil and Chile; M. meridionalis Morrison in California; M. capensis Giard, M. greeni Brain, M. prieskaensis (Jakubski), M. trimeni Giard and M. vredendalensis De Klerk in South Africa. Margarodes prieskaensis, Margarodes vitis and Margarodes vredendalensis are included in the EPPO A1 list of pests recommended for regulation and are covered in this diagnostic protocol. While Margarodes prieskaensis and Margarodes vredendalensis are only recorded on the roots of grapevine (Vitis vinifera), Margarodes vitis is a polyphagous pest which, in addition to its main host grapevine, is found on wild plants or weeds belonging to various families (EPPO/CABI, 1997). Identity Name: Margarodes prieskaensis (Jakubski) 1965 Synonyms: Sphaeraspis prieskaensis Jakubski Taxonomic position: Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Margarodidae EPPO computer code: MARGPR Phytosanitary categorization: EPPO A1 list, UE II/A1. Name: Margarodes vitis (Philippi, 1884) Synonyms: Heterodera vitis Philippi, Margarodes vitium Giard, Margarodes trilobitum Reed, Sphaeraspis vitis Jakubski Taxonomic position: Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Margarodidae EPPO computer code: MARGVI Phytosanitary categorization: EPPO A1 list, UE II/A1. Name: Margarodes vredendalensis De Klerk 1980 Taxonomic position: Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha: Margarodidae EPPO computer code: MARGVR Phytosanitary categorization: EPPO A1 list, UE II/A1. Detection Grapevines infested with Margarodes exhibit a gradual decline in vigour, shoots become thinner and shorter and leaves smaller (Annecke & Moran, 1982). One or more of the branches of the vine may die, followed in severe infestations by the eventual death of the whole plant. The duration of this process varies greatly. Infestations of vineyards are usually patchy. The patches increase in size, presumably because of the gradual subterranean movement of the larvae and adult females. The symptoms resemble those caused by grapevine phylloxera (Viteus vitifoliae) but, in the case of Margarodes, no root galls are formed. All Margarodes have subterranean stages. They live usually at depths of 20–60 cm, but occur at depths of up to 120 cm. Nymphs attach themselves to roots and feed on them. Once feeding is complete, the nymphs are capable of secreting a protective waxy covering to form pearl-like cysts. This is the stage that is most likely to be detected. These cysts are found throughout the year, while females occur only for a month each year. Identification Morphological identification is a recommended method. The taxonomy of scale insects is based almost entirely on the adult female and a good slide preparation of a female is required for identification at species level; see Appendix 1 for the technical procedure. A binocular microscope is needed. For keys of Coccoidea families see Gill (1993) Kosztarab (1996). For a key of Margarodidae genus, see Morrison 1928, Jakubski 1965, Gill 1993 and Foldi 2005 for an updated version; for Margarodes genus on Vitis, see Table 1. Table 1.
