The EFSA Panel on Plant Health performed a pest categorisation of the eggplant fruit and shoot borer, Guenée, (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), for the territory of the EU. is a tropical and sub-tropical species native to Asia and Australia with India considered its centre of origin. Following taxonomic revision, literature reporting from sub-Saharan Africa should be regarded as referring to members of a complex of other species of native to Africa and not as referring to . is not present in the EU and is not a regulated EU pest. is a major pest of (eggplant) in Asia where larvae feed within leaves, stems, shoots and fruits. Larvae can also feed on a range of other plants, mostly within Solanaceae although is generally not reported as a pest of crops other than . However, in recent years has emerged as a pest of in south-west India. In tropical areas there can be 10 generations per year if conditions are suitable. L has been intercepted 350 times in the EU from a range of Asian countries on a range of produce, mostly larvae in fruits of . Biotic factors (host availability) and abiotic factors (climate suitability) suggest that some small areas of the EU could be suitable for establishment. Adult can fly and the species could spread within the EU. The introduction of into the EU would have an economic impact, most likely on production, the magnitude of which is uncertain. Measures are available to prevent the entry of into the EU. satisfies the criteria that are within the remit of EFSA to assess for this species to be regarded as a potential Union quarantine pest.
欧洲食品安全局植物健康小组对茄实螟（Guenée，鳞翅目：草螟科）进行了欧盟区域的有害生物分类。茄实螟是一种原产于亚洲和澳大利亚的热带和亚热带物种，印度被认为是其起源中心。经过分类学修订，来自撒哈拉以南非洲的关于茄实螟的文献应被视为指的是原产于非洲的其他相关物种，而非茄实螟本身。茄实螟在欧盟不存在，也不是欧盟管制的有害生物。在亚洲，茄实螟是茄子的主要害虫，其幼虫在叶片、茎、嫩枝和果实内取食。幼虫也能取食一系列其他植物，大多属于茄科，不过茄实螟一般未被报道为除茄子以外作物的害虫。然而，近年来茄实螟在印度西南部已成为辣椒的害虫。在热带地区，如果条件适宜，每年可发生10代。在欧盟，已从一系列亚洲国家的多种农产品中截获了350次茄实螟，大多是果实中的幼虫。生物因素（寄主可获得性）和非生物因素（气候适宜性）表明，欧盟的一些小区域可能适合其定殖。茄实螟成虫能够飞行，该物种可能在欧盟境内扩散。将茄实螟引入欧盟将产生经济影响，很可能对茄子生产造成影响，但其影响程度尚不确定。有措施可防止茄实螟进入欧盟。茄实螟符合欧洲食品安全局评估的标准，可被视为潜在的欧盟检疫性有害生物。
