Abstract: | The pheromone ofArgyrotaenia velutinana (Walker) is a 92 8 150 mixture of (Z)-11-, (E)-11-tetradecenyl and dodecyl acetates. An 85 15 blend of (Z)-11- and (E)-11-tridecenyl acetates produces a trap catch equivalent to that with the pheromone blend. The sensory input elicited by (Z)-11-tridecenyl acetate appears to substitute for the sensory input of both (Z)-11-tetradecenyl and dodecyl acetates, whereas the input from (E)-11-tridecenyl acetate appears to substitute for that of (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetate. Surprisingly, addition of dodecyl acetate to the tridecenyl acetates mixture decreases trap catches.Lepidoptera: Tortricidae. |
