Hypothenemus hampei (Ferrari) is an important pest of coffee fields all around the world. The understanding of the synthetic attractive volatiles is essential for the development of appropriate strategies for its integrated management. The olfactory response of this insect to ethylene (ETL) and ethyl acetate (EA) was investigated in experimental coffee (Coffea canephora 'Conilon') fields in Rondonia, Brazil, using baited traps with single compounds and combined with alcohols, i.e., ethanol:methanol (ET:MT, 1:1). Baited traps were placed along plant rows within the coffee field using a randomized block design. Collected insects were properly separated, counted and identified using a stereomicroscope in the laboratory. Traps baited with EA captured a higher number of H. hampei compared to control traps, suggesting its effect as possible attractant. Despite that, the combination of EA with single alcohols, i.
