Abstract
A test with wafer discs was used to examine the ability of 20 compound s to inhibit feeding in adults of Sitophilus granarius and Tribolium c onfusum as well as in the larvae of Tribolium confusum and Trogoderma granarium. The compounds tested were sesquiterpenoids of lactarane, is olactarane, marasmane and 13-normarasmane skeletons, either isolated f rom species of Lactarius or their synthetically prepared derivatives. The obtained results of the antifeedant activity are discussed.
