Journal ArticleDOI
(Z)-9-nonacosene-major component of the contact sex pheromone of the beetle Megacyllene caryae.

TL;DR: Previous work with M. robiniae suggested that wipe sampling of cuticular hydrocarbons of females by solid phase microextraction yielded a more representative profile of components actually encountered by a male’s antennae, and so provided a more readily interpretable profile of potential semiochemicals present in the wax layer than does solvent extraction.
Journal Article
Interaction of the Culex quinquefasciatus egg raft pheromone with a natural chemical associated with oviposition sites.
TL;DR: In laboratory bioassays, gravid Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes were strongly attracted and or stimulated to oviposit by a habitat-derived chemical cue, 3-methylindole, at several concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 1 microgram/liter in water, and responses were shown to be additive rather than synergistic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographic variation in the pheromone system of the saturniid mothhemileuca eglanterina
TL;DR: Overall, the existence of different pheromone types in the differentH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerambycid Beetle Species with Similar Pheromones are Segregated by Phenology and Minor Pheromone Components

TL;DR: These field bioassays support the hypothesis that cross attraction between species is averted or at least minimized by differences among species in seasonal phenology and circadian flight periods of adults, and/or by minor pheromone components that act as synergists for conspecifics and antagonists for heterospespecifics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of the Woodborers Monochamus carolinensis and Monochamus titillator (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) to Known Cerambycid Pheromones in the Presence and Absence of the Host Plant Volatile α-Pinene
Jeremy D. Allison,Jessica L. McKenney,Jocelyn G. Millar,J. Steven McElfresh,Robert F. Mitchell,Lawrence M. Hanks,Lawrence M. Hanks +6 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that monochamol is a male-produced pheromone for both M. carolinensis and M. titillator, and that antennae of males and females of both species detect it.
