Abstract

The Z,E isomer of 3,5-tetradecadien-1-ol acetate was a potent attractant for ♂ carpenterworm moths, Prionoxystus robiniae (Peck), in North Dakota, but only the E,E isomer attracted ♀ aspen carpenterworms, Acossus centerensis (Litner): Neither isomer greatly inhibited or synergized the response of males of either species to the other isomer.
