Abstract:"A glass slide bioassay was used to evaluate male twospotted spider mite,Tetranychus urticae Koch, arrestment caused by quiescent deutonymph extract. Males that were guarding quiescent deutonymphs prior to being tested were arrested by a 3-mm-diameter circle of quiescent deutonymph extract; nonguarding males and adult females were not arrested. Extracts of allT. urticae instars tested caused male arrestment, but mean arrestment duration was longest with quiescent deutonymph extract. Arrestment by volatile perception of pheromone and upwind orientation to point sources of extract were not observed. The mono- and sesquiterpene alcohols previously identified as components of the pheromone did not arrest males. HPLC separation of extract resulted in four active fractions; a subtractive bioassay showed that three were essential to elicit maximum male response"
