Abstract
Pheromone compounds shared between two species of pentatomids from the soyb ean stink bug complex are reported. Two male-specific compounds (R-t 27.47 and 29.62 min) were detected in the airborne extract of Piezodorus guildini i by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis. The compounds were identified as methyl 2,6,10-trimethyldodecanoate and methyl 2,6,10-trimethy ltridecanoate.
