    Notes: Abstract Horn fly cuticular paraffin and monoolefin hydrocarbons were chemically identified and assayed for biological activity as attractants. The majority of the paraffins were odd-numbered, straight-chain molecules 21–29 carbons in length; much smaller amounts of even-numbered, straightchain molecules 22–28 carbons in length and methyl-branched compounds were also present. At least 80% of the monoolefin consisted of straight-chain molecules 23, 25, and 27 carbons in length, two of which have been identified as sex pheromones in other muscoid species. The hydrocarbon profiles among sexes and strains (laboratory and wild) were very similar except for wild females, which showed quantitative differences from the other sources. However, only females showed significant (albeit low) responses to some test materials, both synthetic and natural, and activity appeared to be centered in the monoolefins.

    Notes: Abstract Three triply-unsaturated hydrocarbons were identified from cuticular lipids of male and mixed-sex stable flies,Stomoxys calcitrans. The major compound, (Z,Z)-1,7,13-pentacosatriene, and two minor compounds, (Z,Z)-1,7,13-tetracosatriene and (Z,Z)-1,7,13-tricosatriene, were synthesized. Samples of male and female stable flies that differed in age, seasonality, geographic origin, rearing conditions of adults, and methods of extraction were analyzed for the presence of these triolefins. Females were found to have small quantities of the same C25 triolefin, which appeared to be identical to that in males. No evidence was seen for attraction of males or females to natural or synthetic triolefins.
