Sex pheromone perception in male pine sawflies, Neodiprion sertifer (Hymenoptera; Diprionidae)
Electroantennographic and single sensillum recordings were performed on male pine sawfly, Neodiprion sertifer, antennae. Responses to the sex pheromone component (2S, 3S, 7S)- 3,7-dimethyl-2-pentadecenyl (diprion...

Species-specific, two-component, volatile signals in two sympatric ant-lion species:Synclysis baetica andAcanthaclisis occitanica (Neuroptera, Myrmeleontidae)
The thoracic glands of males in two ant-lion speciesSynclysis baetica andAcanthaclisis occitanica, which occur sympatrically in Israel, were found to contain a volatile secretion with two-component blends of nero...

Phase equilibria in dodecyl pyridinium bromide — water surfactant systems
The phase equilibria in four binary (temperature vs. composition) surfactant systems, each containing one of the four isomers of dodecyl pyridinium bromide (DPB) have been studied experimentally by water deute...

Sex Pheromone of the Pine Sawfly Macrodiprion nemoralis (Hymenoptera : Diprionidae): Identification of (2S,3R,7R,9S)-3,7,9-Trimethyl-2-tridecanol as the Precursor for the Active Pheromone Acetate
The main component of the sex pheromone precursor in females of Macrodiprion nemoralis was identified as a threo-3,7,9-trimethyl-2-tridecanol isomer, approximately 800 pg per female, by gas chromatography–mass s...

Acquisition of species-specific perfume blends: influence of habitat-dependent compound availability on odour choices of male orchid bees (Euglossa spp.)
Male orchid bees (Euglossini, Apidae, Hymenoptera) expose species-specific blends of volatile chemicals (perfume bouquets) during their courtship display. The perfumes are acquired by collecting fragrant subst...

Stereoisomeric Analysis of 6,10,14-Trimethylpentadecan-2-ol and the Corresponding Ketone in Wing Extracts from African Bicyclus Butterfly Species
Gas chromatography (GC) and mass spectrometry (MS) were used to determine the stereoisomeric compositions of 6,10,14-trimethylpentadecan-2-ol and 6,10,14-trimethylpentadecan-2-one in wing extracts from 17 Bicyclu...
