A Review Under Existing Import Conditions for Citrus from Israel'' ). Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Australia. Caption: Gastropods, page 12 and Appendix 2.〕 This species has not yet become established in the USA, but it is considered to represent a potentially serious threat as a pest, an invasive species which could negatively affect agriculture, natural ecosystems, human health or commerce. Therefore it has been suggested that this species be given top national quarantine significance in the USA.〔Cowie R. H., Dillon R. T., Robinson D. G. & Smith J. W. (2009).
