Abstract
15 mono-unsaturated acetates were tested by electro-antennography (EAG ) on the male antennae of 33 moth species. EAG-active acetates were fo und for 14 of the 22 species for which there was no hithertoo informat ion about sex pheromone (sex attractant) active compounds or modifiers . For most of the species with known sex pheromones (sex attractants) or modifiers, a correlation is shown between field and EAG results.
