Trail pheromone of leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex subterraneus subterraneus (FOREL)
The trail pheromone of Acromyrmex subterraneus subterraneus consists simply of the heterocyclic ester methyl 4-methylpyrrole-2-carboxylate in the venom reservoir of workers at about 1.2 ng/ant. No pyrazines were detected, and no enhancement of trail-following was observed when pyrazines were added t...
