Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is native to China and is the latest example of great economic, environmental and social impact of a forest pest introduced into a new environment. The forest pests are transported by material propagation and solid wood packaging material (SWPM) used in accommodating cargo in the international trade. It is estimated that pests are responsible for equal to 30% of global agricultural production losses. Currently, Brazil is the world's third largest exporter of agricultural products, and agribusiness has been the lever of the Brazilian economy. The vegetable products were the main contributors to growth of $ 5.54 billion in exports. If introduced the asian longhorned beetle represents a great risk to agribusiness and the national forest estate. This study pretend to provide guidance and guidelines to the official authorities of the country to draw up a contingency plan in taking measures and action strategies and procedures to be adopted in case of suspicion and confirmation of the outbreak of the asian longhorned beetle, A. glabripennis in order to minimize the damage caused by the pest. It is proposed phytosanitary actions involving the prevention of the introduction of the asian longhorned beetle, phytosanitary actions in a suspected outbreak, and phytosanitary actions in case of introduction of asian longhorned beetle in Brazil.
