Remarks

There are at least two entities that feed on Viburnum, but the limits of their hosts is unknown. Enchenopa have been seen feeding on non-native Viburnum and it is likely that both species have a number of known hosts. It is generally thought that the species on V. lentago is different from the species on V. prunifolium, but which of these feeds on specific other Viburnum species is presently unknown.
