    Notes: Abstract The volatiles used by the parasitoidDiadromus pulchellus to find its host, the leek moth, are produced by the bacteria developing in the frass of the host larvae. The origin and the nature of these bacteria were investigated. Samples were taken from healthy leeks and from infested leeks in the field, as well as from the frass of larvae reared in the laboratory either on the host plant or on an artificial diet. The various species of bacteria identified were cultured in the presence of precursors of leek sulphur volatiles and their volatile emissions were analysed.Klebsiella oxytoca and variousBacillus, common decomposers of plant matter, were the principal species producing active volatiles which were alkyl disulphides.

    Notes: Abstract Adult Sitona lineatus L., (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) feed on the leaves of various species of leguminous plants, and females lay in the vicinity of pea plants, the roots of which are eaten by the larvae. A study of the volatiles from several legumes and of the response of S. lineatus individuals to these substances was undertaken using two complementary techniques: behavioral, to study the locomotory orientation; and electrophysiological, using electroantennography (EAG). Four volatile compounds, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, 2-hexenal, cis-3-hexen-1-yl acetate, and 3-octanone, were identified from pea, vetch, clover, and lucerne, by coupled gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and coupled gas chromatography–infrared spectrometry (GC-IR). After emergence from July to mid-November, the imago display high response to the odor of pea and some other leguminous plants. A second period of enhanced sensitivity was observed during crop colonization from March to May. High EAG response to pea odor and cis-3-hexen-1-yl acetate was correlated with periods of enhanced locomotory orientation during these months. Experimental results indicate that cis-3-hexen-1-yl acetate could play a key role in discriminating pea among other acceptable leguminous species.

    Notes: Abstract Seven compounds that do not exist in the extracts from legs of males have been isolated in the hair-pencil extracts of maleAcrolepiopsis assectella. By combining techniques of GC-MS and GC-FT-IR, six of these compounds have been identified. They are sixn-alkanes: hexadecane (C16), heptadecane (C17), octadecane (C18), nonadecane (C19), eicosane (C20), and heneicosane (C21). Twelven-alkanes of the homologous series, from the C14–C25 compounds were presented to virgin females, mated females, and males. At the end of the scotophase, four of then-alkanes (C16, C17, C19, C21) present in the hair-pencil extract induced the virgin females to adopt the acceptance posture after having induced the virgin females to remain stationary. The two othern-alkanes (C18 and C20) present in the extract have less effect on the females similar to then-alkanes not present in the males. The blends tested do not seem to indicate any synergy between the most active compounds. The threen-alkanes with an odd number of carbons and the C16 compound would thus be the principle components of the male pheromone ofA. assectella. As well as their role of female aphrodisiac, they tend to make males and fertilized females flee.
