• egluro mai enw gwyddonol y chwilen gorniog sitrws yw Anoplophora chinensis (Forster);

• gwahardd mewnforio rhywogaethau penodol o blanhigion sy'n tarddu o unrhyw drydedd wlad lle y gwyddys bod Anoplophora chinensis (Forster) yn bresennol oni fodlonir amodau penodol (erthygl 2(3)); a

• ei gwneud yn ofynnol bod gan rywogaethau planhigion o'r fath sy'n tarddu yn y trydydd gwledydd hynny neu yn y Gymuned Ewropeaidd basbort planhigion cyn y gellir eu symud o fewn y Gymuned (erthygl 2(4) a (5)).

Mae'n dramgwydd o dan Orchymyn Iechyd Planhigion (Cymru) 2006 i fynd yn groes i'r gofynion hyn.
