identification and analysis of the male labial gland secretions of three species of bombus (thoracobombus) (hymenoptera: apidae)
the males of the three species of bumblebees, bombus (thoracobombus) ruderarius (müller), b. (t.) persicus radoszkowskiand b. (t.) mesomelas gerstaecker collected from vikan village, qazvin province and their male labial gland secretions were analyzed by gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry (gc/ms) and components of their extracts were identified. the major compounds were a complex mixture of ...
متن کاملMale cephalic labial gland secretions of two bumblebee species of the subgenus Cullumanobombus (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Bombus latreille) and their distribution in central Europe.
The cephalic labial gland secretion of Bombus semenoviellus males was analyzed, and its chemical composition is reported for the first time. The secretion functions as sex or marking pheromone. Eighty compounds were identified in the secretion, the main one being all-trans-geranylgeranyl acetate (48%). The same compound was shown to form 87% of the labial gland secretion of B. cullumanus males....
متن کاملAnalysis of the labial gland secretions of the male bumblebee Bombus griseocollis (Hymenoptera: Apidae).
The labial gland secretions from males of the bumblebee Bombus (Separatobombus) griseocollis De Geer, a bumblebee exhibiting perching behaviour, were analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) in the electron impact and positive ion chemical ionization mode. The major compound of the complex mixture of alkenols, acetates, hydrocarbons, wax type esters and steroids is tetradecyl ac...
متن کاملAtypical secretions of the male cephalic labial glands in bumblebees: the case of Bombus (Rhodobombus) mesomelas Gerstaecker (Hymenoptera, Apidae).
In bumblebees, the male secretion of the cephalic labial gland is species-specific. It is highly involved in the nuptial behavior, acting as a sexual attracting pheromone. Therefore, it is also used to accurately identify the species. In contrast to this common scheme, the secretions of Bombus mesomelas are found to be strongly reduced and do not include the most volatile compounds that are pre...
متن کاملAnalysis of the labial gland secretions of the male bumble bee Bombus perplexus Cresson (Hymenoptera: Apidae) from North America.
The labial gland secretions from males of the bumble bee Bombus (Pyrobombus) perplexus Cresson were analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) in the electron impact and positive ion chemical ionization mode. The major compound of the complex mixture of alkenols, alkenals, fatty acids, hydrocarbons, wax type esters and steroids is 3,7,11,15-tetramethyl-2,6,10-hexadecatrien-1-ol (g...
