Presence of long-chain dialkyl ethers in cuticular wax of the Australian chrysomelid beetleMonolepta australis.

Abstract:

:Investigation of the lipid extract of the Australian chrysomelid beetle,Monolepta australis, has revealed a novel homologous series of long-chain, unsaturated-saturated dialkyl ethers in the cuticular wax. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, proton magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, and chemical degradation have shown that ethers of formula CH3(CH2)9CH=CH(CH2)6O(CH2)12-16CH3 predominate.

  • Chemical Ecology and Sociality in Aphids: Opportunities and Directions.

    abstract::Aphids have long been recognized as good phytochemists. They are small sap-feeding plant herbivores with complex life cycles that can involve cyclical parthenogenesis and seasonal host plant alternation, and most are plant specialists. Aphids have distinctive traits for identifying and exploiting their host plants, in...
