Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Trace components contributed significantly to the potency of synthetic sex attractant lures for males of many species of Noctuidae. Improved synthetic blends for 12 moths includingEuxoa ochrogaster andTrichoplusia ni, and new lure blends for 10 moths are described. In every case the trace constituents were structural analogs of the main lure components.
