    Notes: Summary The attraction of Old World leaf beetles in the genusAulacophora to kairomones and parakairomones which are effective lures for New WorldDiabrotica andAcalymma were investigated. Beetles captured on sticky traps baited with single and multicomponent lures were no different from the control traps for two species ofAulacophora. Yellow colored traps and squash blossoms are attractive toAulacophora beetles which detect sub-microgram quantities of cucurbitacins on silica gel. Leaf feeding behavior and flight activity data are correlated with varietal preference of threeAulacophora species. The common response byDiabrotica andAulacophora to cucurbitacins reinforces the two groups' coevolutionary association with the Cucurbitaceae. The apparent lack of a common response toCucurbita blossom volatiles suggests recent evolutionary pathways are substantially different for these two groups of beetles.

    Notes: Abstract The heart rate and blood pressure responses to head-up tilt of 80 degrees was studied in 20 normal men and 21 normal women aged 20–50 years (mean age 31.1 ± 7.1 years). The heart rate increase in females during tilt was 73% that of males, whereas the increase in diastolic pressure during tilt was 29% of males. Expressed in relation to values obtained supine, heart rate increases on average 30.3% in men as compared to 21.5% in women whereas diastolic pressure increases by 15.2% in men as compared to an increase of only 4.3% in women. The data indicates that the cardiovascular response of normal females to upright tilt differs significantly from that of normal males. This attenuated responsiveness to ortho-stasis in women relative to men may predispose women to postural insufficiency and may account for the predominance of symptomatic women with clinically mild dysautonomia.
