Extracts of terminal abdominal segments of female Lacanobia subjuncta contained (Z)-11-hexadecenyl acetate, (Z)-11-hexadecenal, and (Z)-11-hexadecenol at a ratio of 1:0.2: 0.02. (Z)-11-hexadecenyl acetate and (Z)-11-hexadecenal were most effective as a lure for trapping males when loaded in rubber s...
