(E4,Z9)-TETRADECADIENAL, A SEX PHEROMONE FOR THREE NORTH AMERICAN MOTH SPECIES IN THE GENUS Saturnia
TL;DR: The lepidopteran genus Saturnia has three representatives in North America and it is suggested that the three species can use the same, single component as a sex attractant because the flight period of S. albofasciata is different than that of the other two species (spring), whereas the geographic distributions ofS.

Yong-Hong Xiao,Yong-Hong Xiao,Alenka Zunic-Kosi,Long-Wa Zhang,Long-Wa Zhang,Thomas R. Prentice,J. Steven McElfresh,Satya P. Chinta,Yunfan Zou,Jocelyn G. Millar +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that the funnel‐web spider, Hololena curta, has 3 adaptations that minimize risk to males during courtship and mating, and enhance reproductive success.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kent M. Daane,Glenn Y. Yokota,Vaughn M. Walton,Brian N. Hogg,Monica L. Cooper,Walter J. Bentley,Jocelyn G. Millar +6 more
TL;DR: Mating disruption was used to help initiate the commercialization of mating disruption products for the vine mealybug, which are now being successfully used throughout the world’s grape-growing regions where this pest is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification and field testing of female-produced sex pheromone components of the spring cankerworm,Paleacrita vernata Peck (Lepidoptera: Geometridae).
TL;DR: The attraction of male moths to synthetic lures was suppressed by the addition of 6Z,9Z-cis-3,4-epoxy-nonadecadiene to the lures, and the two-component blend was as attractive as the three- component blend in further field tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Volatile unsaturated hydrocarbons emitted by seedlings of Brassica species provide host location cues to Bagrada hilaris
TL;DR: The results suggest that this diterpene, alone or in combination with one or more of the minor compounds, is a key mediator in this insect-plant interaction, and could be a good candidate for use in lures for monitoring B. hilaris in the field.
