Byers, J. R. published the artcileIdentification of sex pheromones of Leucania anteoclara Sm. and Leucania commoides Gn. (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Hadeninae), Related Products of esters-buliding-blocks, the publication is Journal of Chemical Ecology (1997), 23(2), 473-485, database is CAplus.
The sex pheromone components of two species of Leucania that occur sympatrically in western Canada were identified in abdomen-tip extracts from calling female moths. (Z)-11-hexadecenyl acetate was the main component and (Z)-9-tetradecenyl acetate the second component in both species. The third component necessary for specific attractancy was (Z)-11-hexadecenyl aldehyde for L. anteoclara and (Z)-11-hexadecenyl alc. for L. commoides. The third component for each species was an attractant inhibitor when added as a fourth component to the attractant blend for the reciprocal species. The most effective synthetic blend for the attraction of males in the field was Z9-14:Ac/Z11-16:Ac/Z11-16:Ald in a ratio of 1:10:4 for L. anteoclara and Z9-14:Ac/Z11-16:Ac/Z11-16:OH in a ratio of 5:4:1 for L. commoides.
