“…Before we initiated the field test reported here at the same location as mentioned below more than 250 mono-and polyunsaturated compounds known as sex pheromones in Lepidoptera (Bestmann & Vostrowsky, 1981) or their structural analogues were tested for attractivity since 1977. With none of the compounds tested could any appreciable attractivity be found.…”

“…Acetates are present in many insect glands, especially as mono-and polyunsaturated esters which act as pheromones (Bestmann and Vostrowsky, 1981). While octyl acetate represents the ester with maximal carbon-chain length in defensive secretions of Heteroptera (Weatherston and Percy, 1978), esters from nonyl acetate to hexadecyl acetate are known from hymenopteran glands (Blum and Hermann, 1978).…”

The secretions of the abdominal glands ofBledius spectabilis Kraatz,Platystethus arenarius Fourcr., andOxytelus piceus L. have been shown to contain four 1-alkenes; toluquinone; toluhydroquinone; C10 (-)-,C11 (-), C12 (-)-, and C14 (-) γ-lactones; C12-δ-lactone; citral; and decyl-, undecyl-, and dodecyl acetates. Quantitative results indicate that 1-alkenes are formed probably from present lactones by decarboxylation. According to the known life histories of the beetles, it is suggested that the gland material is not used as an algal growth regulator but represents a unique defensive blend characteristic for the whole subfamily.
