## Abstract

We are amending the Asian longhorned beetle (ALB) regulations by removing plants of the genus Celtis from the list of regulated articles, which we have determined not to be a host plant of ALB. This action is necessary to relieve restrictions on the movement of regulated articles that are not hosts of ALB. As a result of this action, there are no longer any restrictions on the movement of Celtis spp. plants from areas quarantined for ALB.
