Pheromone specificity in Eriocrania semipurpurella (Stephens) and E. sangii (Wood) (Lepidoptera: Eriocraniidae) based on chirality of semiochemicals
The fifth abdominal segment of female Eriocrania semipurpurella (Stephens) and E. sangii (Wood) contains a pair of exocrine glands. Hexane extracts of this segment were prepared from both species and analyzed by gas chromatography with simultaneous flame ionization and electroantennographic detectio...

The fifth abdominal segment of female Eriocrania semipurpurella (Stephens) and E. sangii (Wood) contains a pair of exocrine glands. Hexane extracts of this segment were prepared from both species and analyzed by gas chromatography with simultaneous flame ionization and electroantennographic detection (EAD). For both species, the EAD active peaks were identified as nonan-2-one, (Z)-6-nonen-2-one, and (Z)-6-nonen-2-ol by means of mass spectrometry and comparison of retention indices with those of synthetic standards. Enantiomeric separation of chiral alcohols from the female extracts was achieved by gas chromatographic analysis on a cyclodextrin column. In E. semipurpurella, a mixture of (2S,6Z)-nonen-2-ol and (2R,6Z)-nonen-2-ol (2:1) was found, whereas in E. sangii (2S,6Z)-nonen-2-ol was the predominant enantiomer and only traces of the R enantiomer were indicated by the antennal response.
