Abstract/Contents: | "Blends of (Z)-11-hexadecenal (Z11-16:Ald) and (Z)-9-hexadecenal (Z9-16:Ald) were evaluated for their effectiveness in trapping male bluegrass webworms, Parapediasia teterrella(Zincken). Sticky traps baited with rubber septa containing a 20:1 blend of Z11-16:Ald and Z9-16:Ald caught significantly more male bluegrass webworm adults than traps containing 200:3, 2:1, or 1:1 blends, or either compound alone, but not more than a 20:3 blend of the same compounds (Z11-16:Ald/Z9-16:Ald). Males responded to a wide range of doses of the 20:1 blend (0.1-3 mg). This blend of Z11/Z9-16:Ald provides an effective means of detecting the presence of males and may prove to be useful in monitoring the population size of an insect that is otherwise difficult to sample." |
