Planotortrix Excessana

Abstract Planotortrix excessana was found to include moths of two distinct pheromone-types which were not mutually attractive. Tetradecyl acetate and (Z)-8-tetradecenyl acetate were identified as pheromone components in one, and two other tetradecenyl acetates, probably (Z)-5-and (Z)-7-tetradecenyl acetate, in the other. By contrast with other pheromones reported from the tribe Archipini,⊿11-tetradecenyl compounds were not found in either pheromone-type.

Ctenopseustis Obliquana

The sex pheromone of Ctenopseustis obliquana was found to contain (Z)-8-tetradecenyl acetate and (Z)-5-tetradecenyl acetate in approximately 4:1 ratio. No A 11-tetradecenyl compound was detected in C. obliquana, in contrast with the pheromones thus far reported from species of the tribe Archipini elsewhere in the world.

Abstract An investigation of the sex pheromone of the New Zealand Silver Y Moth Chrysodeixis erio­soma (Doubleday), formerly described as Plusia chalcites (Esper) resulted in the identification of the major active components as 7Z-and 9Z-dodecenyl acetates, in approx. 97:3 ratio. This blend was attractive to C. eriosoma males in the field and in a laboratory flight tunnel. 5Z-D odecenyl acetate and 7Z-dodecenyl alcohol inhibited this response in the field. C. eriosoma was also attract­ed to the 5:1 blend of 7Z-dodecenyl acetate and 9Z-tetradecenyl acetate reported as the phero­mone of Chrysodeixis (Plusia) chalcites in the western Palaearctic. Specialist receptor cells for all 5 compounds mentioned were found in male antennal sensilla in both species.
