IMPORTATION PROHIBITED 
Article 1. From April 25, 1929, in order to prevent the introduction into Spain

in the following-named countries is prohibited : 
Japan, United States of America, Canada, and New Zealand. — All kinds of 
fresh fruits, and the plants, shoots, scions, etc., of all fruits, and mulberry trees,

extension of the prohibition 
(Decree of Aug. 14, 1934 ; Gaceta de Madrid,- no. 228, Aug. 16, 1934) 
Article 1. As a preventive measure against the introduction into, transit 
through, and distribution of San Jose scale, Aspidiotus pemiciosus Comst., in 
Spain, the importation is prohibited of all kinds of fresh fruits, as well as 
living plants and parts thereof (scions, buds, greenhouse plants, etc.), which 
originate in, or proceed from Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Portugal, and South 
Africa. 
Note. — Since the San Jose scale is widely distributed in the United States this decree 
is undoubtedly applicable. 
Parasites Against Which Certification is Required 
(Order of Apr. 20, 1932 ; Gaceta de Madrid, no. 115. Apr. 24, 1932) 
In connection with the order of the Ministry of Agriculture, Industry, and 
Commerce, no. 624, of March 1, 1932, concerning a list of diseases and enemies 
of plant cultures, against which Spain especially desires to be protected, and 
to which certificates issued by the French phytopathological service are to be 
adjusted with respect to shipments of living plants directed to Spain: This 
ministry has resolved to transmit the list of insects, fungi, and bacteria whose 
presence in consignments of plant products from any source, which are shipped 
to Spain, or whose existence in the countries of origin will determine the 
prohibition of the importation of the plants, their fruits, seeds, or parts which 
those parasites attack, and of articles that may serve as vehicles of infection. 
Certificates of official phytopathological services of the various countries 
that export plant products and living plants to Spain must affirm the non- 
existence in the respective country of the diseases or pests caused by the 
agencies named in the said list. 
List of insects, fungi, and bacteria whose presence in consignments of plants 
and plant products exported to Spain or whose existence in the countries of 
origin will determine the prohibition of the plants, their fruits, seeds, or parts 
which those parasites attack, and materials that may serve as vehicles of 
infection. 
INSECT pests 
(Aleyrodes) Dialeurodes citri Ashm., citrus whitefly, and other species of 
the. same genus. 
Anthonomus grandis Boh., boll weevil.
