ABSTRACT:
A pheromonal compound produced by the western grapeleaf skeletonizer has been identified as sec-butyl (Z)-7-tetradecenoate. The synthetically-prepared compound demonstrates activity toward both the western grapeleaf skeletonizer, Harrisina brillians Barnes and McDunnough and the grapeleaf skeletonizer, Harrisina americana (Guerin). By attracting adult moths to field traps, this compound offers a useful tool in monitoring and control of this pest.
