Abstract
Pheromonal synergism and inhibition in P. flammea was further studied through electrophysiological and field trapping tests. Z11-tetradecenyl acetate and Z11-hexa - decenyl acetate, each acting upon a separate type of male sensory cell, were equally effective in synergizing attraction responses to the major pheromone component, Z9-tetradecenyl acetate. Addition of Z7-dodecenyl acetate to these lures reduced captures. Male attraction specificity markedly varied with local moth density.
