Sažetak
After the first record of the red palm weevil Rhynchophorus ferrugineus (Olivier, 1790) in 2011 on palms in Croatia, new quarantine pest was discovered very soon after. It was the castniid palm borer Paysandisia archon (Burmeister, 1880). This pest was found on palms Phoenix canariensis, Trahycarpus fortunei, Chamerops humilis, Washigtonia felifera and Washingtonia robusta in a nursery near Split.
Red palm weevil and castniid palm borer very often destroy their host completely. These two pests are the most important pests of palms in Europe, and because of that, they have quarantine status. In the mediterranean part of Europe, these pests spread very quickly causing huge damages. Along with the first record in Croatia, this article describes the damages that are caused by the castniid palm borer, its hosts, morphology, biology and control
