Males and females of N. parvus produce several short-chain esters and acids, and their antennae showed electrophysiological responses to five of these compounds, three common to both sexes (hexyl butanoate, 4-methylhexyl butanoate, and hexyl hexanoate), and two female-specific compounds (4-methylhexyl pentanoate and hexyl pentanoate). Both aeration extracts of females and a solution containing five synthetic compounds mimicking the natural blend were attractive to males andfemalesN.parvusinalaboratorybioassay.Aspectsofthechemicalecologyofthebroad-headedbugsandthepossibilitytouse pheromone-baitedtrapsinthefieldformonitoringarediscussed. |
