Attraction of A Native Florida Leafminer, Phyllocnistis Insignis (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae), to Pheromone of an Invasive Citrus Leafminer, P. Citrella: Evidence for Mating Disruption of a Native Non-Target Species

We collected a native North American species, Phyllocnistis insignis (Frey & Boll) (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae), in traps baited with a 3:1 blend of (Z,Z,E)-7,11,13-hexadecatrienal (triene) and (Z,Z)-7,11-hexadecadienal (diene), 2 components of the sex pheromone of the invasive citrus leafminer, P. citrella Stainton. No moths were caught in unbaited traps during 6 months of monitoring. We eval...
