Australian plague locust (Chortoicetes terminifera)
The Australian plague locust (APL) is the most economically important grasshopper in Australia. The immature hopper stage damages mainly pastures in farming areas, and gardens and lawns in domestic areas. They tend to avoid established green crops, although the edges of crops can be damaged. Adult locusts can form swarms and fly into other areas, damaging pastures, ripening cereal, lupin and pulse crops, grapevines, fruit trees and native tree seedlings. If crops have completely dried off before locusts begin flying, the possibility of damage is considerably less.https://researchlibrary.agric.wa.gov.au/bulletins/1036/thumbnail.jp
Exporting quarantine risk material from Western Australia
Although pests and diseases occur right across Australia, some States and Territories – and even some regions within a State – are free of specific ones. Quarantine programs regulate the interstate movement of goods which could carry pests and diseases. Minimising their spread is vital because, once established, they can be difficult and expensive to eradicate or control
