Description

Original data for Molander et al: p-Mentha-1,3-dien-9-ol: A novel aggregation-sex pheromone for monitoring longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) in Eurasia and North America

Longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) are a diverse family of beetles with considerable impact as forest pests and vectors of pathogens, as well as being important components of forest food webs and ecosystem functionality. In recent years, numerous cerambycid pheromones have been identified, revealing some broad general patterns in functionality in terms of sex or aggregation- sex pheromones in different subfamilies, and different types of compounds characterizing the pheromones of various cerambycid taxa. Here, we include supplementary and original data regarding the identification of the aggregation- sex pheromones of the Eurasian longhorn beetle Aromia moschata moschata (L.) (Cerambycinae; tribe Callichromatini) and the North American species Holopleura marginata LeConte (Cerambycinae; Holopleurini). This is part of an ongoing effort to extend the taxonomic coverage of identified cerambycid pheromones, and to expand the prospects

Longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) are a diverse family of beetles with considerable impact as forest pests and vectors of pathogens, as well as being important components of forest food webs and ecosystem functionality. In recent years, numerous cerambycid pheromones have been identified, revealing some broad general patterns in functionality in terms of sex or aggregation- sex pheromones in different subfamilies, and different types of compounds characterizing the pheromones of various cerambycid taxa. Here, we include supplementary and original data regarding the identification of the aggregation- sex pheromones of the Eurasian longhorn beetle Aromia moschata moschata (L.) (Cerambycinae; tribe Callichromatini) and the North American species Holopleura marginata LeConte (Cerambycinae; Holopleurini). This is part of an ongoing effort to extend the taxonomic coverage of identified cerambycid pheromones, and to expand the prospects for cerambycid monitoring into the study of biodiversity and ecosystem services. Both species were found to use the novel pheromone compound p-mentha-1,3-dien-9-ol, which also attracted significant numbers of the longhorn beetle Xestoleptura crassipes (LeConte) (Lepturinae; Lepturini) in trials in California. p-Mentha-1,3-dien-9-ol represents a class of pheromone compounds novel to both tribes (Callichromatini and Holopleurini), further increasing the chemical space of identified pheromones within the subfamily Cerambycinae. This compound is also noteworthy because it represents an entirely different chemical class of pheromones than the monoepoxide (E)-2-cis-6,7-epoxynonenal previously reported as an aggregation-sex pheromone for the invasive Asian congener Aromia bungii (Faldermann).

Original data from field trapping studies of catches of different species to different lures tested in the study.

Aromia moschata trapping: Field trapping trials were performed at Revingehed near Lake Krankesjön, at 20 different field trapping sites (replicates) identified only by numbers 1-20. Treatments compared comprised two different baits: Dienol (p-Mentha-1,3-dien-9-ol dissolved in isopropanol) and Control (isopropanol only).
Table columns: Year, Set date, Emptying date, Ordinal date, Trap site, Treatment (Dienol or Control), Total catch, Catch males, Catch females.

Holopleura marginata trapping (and other species): Field trapping trials were performed at four different sites in northern California: 1) Slaughterhouse Ravine, Magalia, Butte Co. (Magalia), 2) Rattlesnake Creek at Forest Road 27N12 (Rattle), 3) Junction Forest Roads 27N06 and 27N12Y (Rd27), 4) Whispering Pines Pet Clinic property, Magalia, Butte Co. (Whisp). Treatments compared comprised four different bait types with active components dissolved in isopropanol: Dienol (p-Mentha-1,3-dien-9-ol), Alcohol (2-(4-methylphenyl)-1-propanol = p-cymen-9-ol), 1:1 blend of the former, and Control (isopropanol).
