- 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 (diprionyl) acetate (SSS:OAc), to the behavioral inhibitor (2S, 3R, 7R)-diprionyl acetate (SRR:OAc), to the six other enantiomers of diprionyl acetate, and to the biosynthetic precursor diprionol were recorded. Responses to trans-perillenal, a monoterpene identified in female gland extracts and to (2S, 3S, 7S)-diprionyl propionate (SSS:OPr), a field attractant for N. sertifer and some related sawfly species were also recorded. EAG recordings demonstrated a high antennal sensitivity to SSS:OAc and to SSS:OPr. A somewhat lower response was elicited by SRR:OAc. Single sensillum recordings revealed 8–12 different cells firing in each sensillum, corresponding to the number of cells observed in earlier morphological investigations. Out of these cells all, except one, responded to SSS:OAc and to SSS:OPr. No differences in the response to the two components could be observed. The largest amplitude cell in each sensillum was specifically tuned to the behavioral antagonist, SRR:OAc. The pheromone perception system encountered in male pine sawflies thus differs clearly from that observed in moths.

Attraction of Pea Moth Cydia-Nigricana F (Lepidoptera, Tortricidae) to Female Sex-Pheromone (E,E)-8,10-Dodecadien-1-Yl Acetate, Is Inhibited by Geometric Isomers E,Z, Z,E, and Z,Z

- Field attraction of Cydia nigricana males to synthetic female sex pheromone (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate, formulated on red rubber septa, declined continuously during two weeks. This was due to isomerization of (E,E)-8, 10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate: eight days after application of purified E,E isomer, the proportion of E,Z; Z,E; and Z,Z isomers in rubber septa aged in the laboratory was 4 %; a 5 % addition of any one of these isomers to fresh lures of (E,E)-8, 10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate significantly reduced male attraction. Stereospecific syntheses of (E,Z)-, (Z,E)-, and (Z,Z)-g, 10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate are described. The pheromone gland of Cydia nigricana contains 0.8 ng/female of (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate, accompanied by three monounsaturated acetates, (E)-9-dodecen-1-yl acetate, (Z)-5-tetradecen-1-yl acetate, and (Z)-7-tetradecen-1-yl acetate (0.1 ng/female each). These compounds did not augment male trap catch when added to (E,E)-8,10-dodecadien-1-yl acetate.
