Notes

Sinoxylon unidentatum has been recorded multiple times in Europe ( Nardi and Mifsud 2015, Lykidis et al. 2016), although it appears that there are currently no established populations ( Lykidis et al. 2016). The fact that the specimen presented here was collected in close proximity to a port area would suggest its recent arrival rather than the existence of a stable population.
