Towards the end of 2007 all planned fieldwork was completed. This included surveys of previously unvisited grape growing regions in Western Australia, South Australia and Victoria. The monthly sampling of two P. persicae populations, in order to reveal both scale and natural enemy phenology was also completed. Other progress in 2007, included the near finalisation of the molecular component of the study, which has developed a method to discriminate between scale species found in vineyards using mitochondrial DNA sequences. The remainder of the year was spent curating and identifying soft scale and natural enemy specimens. The life of the project was officially extended now due to conclude by July 2008.
