     I have learnt that a New Zealand company is considering importing 
     hardwood poles from Argentina. This will undoubtably mean that I 
     (and my entomologist colleagues) will be asked to produce some 
     form of pest risk assessment. I have virtually no knowledge of 
     Argentinian forest fungi so could some kind soul out there 
     possibly steer me in the right direction as far as sources of 
     information go? Any help greatly appreciated.
