S. e  aA review of the introduced forest pests in Brazil.  c2016  aSpecial attention should be given to forest plantings in order to minimize the probability of exotic pest introduction and, consequently, of production losses. The objective of this review was to present, under a historic perspective, the main exotic insects that harm the Brazilian forest sector. Therefore, to better describe the phytosanitary context of introduced forest pests in Brazil, the main information regarding these insects was gathered here. Introduced species and species with a risk of introduction were listed. The following species were registered: 12exotic introduced species related to eucalyptus, non?quarantine; 9 species related to pine, one quarantine; and 1 species related to teak, quarantine. Overall, the core problems for 57 pest species  were addressed, followed by projections on current risks and priorities. Biological control programs and  their respective agents were also mentioned. For eucalyptus plantations, the species belonging to the genera Ophelimus  and  Leptocybe  are priorities and should be emphasized. Regarding pine species, the main current concerns are Bursaphelenchus xylophilus  (transmitted by species of  Monochamus), Rhyacionia frustrana,  and Dendroctonus frontalis. Better risk management requires reinforcement of phytosanitary inspections and constant refinement of contingency plans, whose actions include monitoring by visual sampling, employment of sentinel plants, and preventive breeding programs aiming at pest resistance.  aForest pests  aInvasive species  aPest resistance  aQuarantine  aPraga exótica  aSetor florestal  aEspécie invasora  aExotic pest  aForest sector  aPraga florestal  aQuarentenárias  aResistência a praga1 aPENTEADO, S.
