“…Compounds detached by the resin were organic compounds, according to the EDS analysis, and likely came from glandular secretions and the outermost cuticular layers. Previous analytical studies have been performed on solid-phase microextraction fibers (SPMEs) and solvent extraction of parts or whole body of beetles belonging to Buprestidae and few other taxa (Fukaya, 2003; Ginzel et al, 2006; Lelito et al, 2009; Silk et al, 2009; González-Núñez et al, 2012; Yew and Chung, 2015; Yang et al, 2017; etc.). Hydrocarbons are the major components of the cuticular coating of adult insects (Lockey, 1991), even though a wide range of more polar lipids have also been found and shown to have attractive properties (Yew and Chung, 2015; Hanks and Millar, 2016).…”

This study focuses on several aspects of communication strategies adopted by adults of the Mediterranean flat-headed root-borer Capnodis tenebrionis (Coleoptera: Buprestidae). Morphological studies on the structures involved in mate recognition and acceptance revealed the presence of porous areas in the pronota in both sexes. These areas were variable in shape and size, but proportionally larger in males. The presence of chaetic, basiconic, and coeloconic sensilla in the antennae of both males and females was verified. Bioassays revealed stereotyped rituals in males and the involvement of female pronotal secretions in mate recognition and acceptance. During the mating assays, the female’s pronotum was covered by a biologically inert polymeric resin (DenFil TM ), which prevented males from detecting the secretions and from completing the copulation ritual. The use of the resin allowed for the collection of chemical compounds. GC-MS analysis of the resin suggested it may be used to retain compounds from insect body surfaces and revealed sex-specific chemical profiles in the cuticles. Since adult C. tenebrionis may use volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from leaves or shoots, the VOC emission profiles of apricot trees were characterized. Several volatiles related to plant-insect interactions involving fruit tree species of the Rosaceae family and buprestid beetles were identified. To improve understanding of how VOCs are perceived, candidate soluble olfactory proteins involved in chemoreception (odorant-binding proteins and chemosensory proteins) were identified using tissue and sex-specific RNA-seq data. The implications for chemical identification, physiological and ecological functions in intraspecific communication and insect–host interactions are discussed and potential applications for monitoring presented.

The beetle Homalinotus depressus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a major pest of coconuts in the Northern region of Brazil, for which environmentally friendly methods of control are desired. Behavioral responses of H. depressus to airborne volatile extracts from conspecifics suggested the presence of a male-produced aggregation pheromone. GC analyses of these extracts showed the presence of four male-specific compounds. Analytical data in combination with the synthesis of standards led to the identification of the male-released semiochemicals as epoxyisophorone (1), isophorone (2), homalinol (3), and 2-hydroxyisophorone (4), of which (3) was the major constituent. The configuration of homalinol was determined to be cis on the basis of retention times of synthetic cis and trans synthetic standards. Enantiomers of cis-homalinol were obtained in high enantiomeric excess by using biocatalysis. Their separation on a GC enantioselective column (β-Dex325®), allowed us to unambiguously determine that the absolute configuration of natural homalinol was (1R,2R,6S). Field bioassays demonstrated that both the synthetic major compound per se and mixtures of all four male-specific compounds were attractive to H. depressus.

Araecerus fasciculatus merupakan hama yang menginfestasi komoditas pertanian di gudang penyimpanan. Pada singkong kering, hama ini menyebabkan kerusakan sebesar 20,6-91,51%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari biologi A. fasciculatus pada singkong kering dan tingkat kerusakan yang ditimbulkannya. Pengujian lama perkembangan telur dilakukan dengan menginfestasikan imago A. fasciculatus sebanyak 100 ekor ke masing-masing 50 potong singkong kering selama 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 hari. Pengujian lama perkembangan larva, pupa, dan imago ke masing-masing 305 potong singkong kering selama 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 hari, selanjutnya singkong kering 5 potong didestruksi setiap hari selama dua bulan. Pengamatan dilakukan setelah lama hari infestasi. Pengamatan dilakukan terhadap morfologi, morfometri, lama perkembangan setiap stadia, tingkat kerusakan singkong kering akibat infestasi A. fasciculatus. Pada pengujian ini, dilakukan analisis kandungan nutrisi singkong kering, pengukuran suhu, dan kelembapan ruang pengujian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan lama perkembangan telur 5,82 hari. Perkembangan larva instar pertama, kedua, ketiga, keempat, kelima selama 3,40; 3,80; 4,60; 5,80; 7,80 hari. Sedangkan pupa dan imago selama 7,20 dan 28,34 hari. Pada pengujian ini, disajikan morfologi gambar berwarna dan morfometri semua stadia. Periode penyimpanan 3 bulan menyebabkan persentase kehilangan singkong kering berlubang 61,58% dan bubuk singkong 11,08%. Pengujian biologi ini akan menjadi dasar dalam identifikasi dan pengendalian A. fasciculatus untuk setiap stadianya pada singkong kering.
