Popis: |
Morphological classification of the nine European representatives of small ermine moths yields four distinct species and a complex of five closely related forms. In four forms of the complex and one distinct species receptor and action potentials were recorded from the outer dendritic segments of the olfactory cells in individual antennal sensilla trichodea during stimulation with sex-attractants. Two types of cells were activated. The response spectra of these cells in males for the sex-attractants differed characteristically among the various Yponomeuta tested. This indicates that the composition of the respective female sex pheromones may differ. The activity of two cell types suggests that multi-component sex pheromone systems are utilized. |
