“…Ethanol is produced by conifers that are temporarily stressed and by tissues in dead and dying trees (Kelsey 1994(Kelsey , 1996Joseph 1998, 2003). The monoterpene ␣-pinene is a major constituent of the oleoresin of most pines (Mirov 1961, Smith 2000. In addition, adult sawyer beetles are relatively longlived and feed on pine foliage and twigs throughout their breeding period.…”

“…Eight treatments were replicated three times and examined in an attempt to isolate the critical monoterpene constituents that may be lacking in the ethanol-turpentine blends, but present in the oleoresin of P. strobus. Seven PVC pitfall trap treatments were included: (1) (MIROV, 1961). A pit trap containing a freshly cut pine billet and the synthetic 5 : 1 ethanol-turpentine bait was also included.…”

The pales weevil, Hylobius pales (Herbst) (Col., Curculionidae) is an important regeneration pest of Pinus seedlings and a secondary pest of Christmas tree plantations in the United States. Attempts to sample this endemic pest in Virginia, USA with simulated host odors of ethanol and turpentine have met with varying levels of success. Markand-recapture techniques were used to assess the efficacy of various combinations of host volatiles, pine billets, and trap designs for capturing H. pales adults. No differences were observed in the number of H. pales caught between pit and PVC pitfall traps containing the same bait type. Traps containing freshly cut Pinus strobus L. billets caught significantly more weevils than traps containing synthetic volatiles alone. Traps baited with freshly cut P. strobus caught significantly more weevils than those containing P. strobus cut 2 months previously. The synthetic attractant components of ethanol and turpentine were most effective when presented in a combined bait blend than when released from separate vials.Overall, traps baited with combined blends of 5 : 1 ethanol-turpentine and freshly cut P. strobus were most effective in capturing H . pales. Hylobius pales showed no attraction to unbaited PVC pitfall or pit traps. Males and females responded similarly to all treatments.

“…(gray or digger pine) is composed of 95 to 99% n-heptane (with small amounts of undecane and other alkanes) and only less than a few percent monoterpenes (2,3). Mirov (4) reported 5% undecane in P. torreyana Perry and less than 0.1% heptane and 5% heptane in P. coulteri D. Don. Smith (5) also reported varying amounts of heptane in the wood of P. rudis (0-32%) and P. pseudostrobus (0-47%).…”

The wood oils of Pinus jeffreyi and P. sabiniana contain considerable amounts of heptane (76.6%, 92%), on a monoterpene basis. However, when entire wood extractables is considered, the amounts drop considerably (3.4%, 36.8%) with the major portion of the wood oils being diterpene acids. The leaf oil of P. jeffreyi is dominated by α-pinene (20.9%) and, a diterpene, thunbergol (9.2%) with moderate amounts of β-pinene, δ-3-carene, limonene, β-phellandrene, (Z)-β-ocimene, (E)-caryophyllene, δ-cadinene and cembrene. The leaf oil of P. sabiniana is dominated by α-pinene (39.1%) with moderate amounts of β-pinene, myrcene, limonene, β-phellandrene, (Z)-β-ocimene, methyl chavicol, decanal and thunbergol.
