# Overview
**EPPO** *Express Pest Risk Analysis* -- [PM5/5(1) Additional guidance](https://www.eppo.int/RESOURCES/eppo_standards/pm5_pra) -- requires information that can be easily obtained using `pestr` package functions. Particularly the information needed for *Stage 2. Pest Risk Assessment*:
* **1. Taxonomy** -- `eppo_tabletools_taxo`, `eppo_names_tables`
* **2. Pest overview** -- `eppo_tabletools_hosts`
* **5. Regulatory status of the pest** -- `eppo_tabletools_cat`
* **6. Distribution -- `eppo_tabletools_distri`**
* **7. Host plants / habitats and their distribution in the PRA area** -- `eppo_tabletools_hosts`
For the purpose of this vignette, lets assume that you are working on well known pest -- *Anoplophora chinensis*. This beetle is know for it's voracious larvae which bore into the wood of living trees. More detailed info can be found at [EPPO Datasheet: Anoplophora chinensis](https://gd.eppo.int/taxon/ANOLCN/datasheet).
