Cuticular hydrocarbons fromVarroa jacobsoni
Experimental and Applied Acarology, 1992The cuticular hydrocarbons fromVarroa mites collected in Florida and Italy and their honeybee hosts were characterized by gas chromatography (GC) and by coupled GC-mass spectrometry (MS). AVarroa mite has a hydrocarbon pattern that is qualitatively identical to that of its honeybee host.

A Review of Ant Cuticular Hydrocarbons
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2009We compared the published cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profiles of 78 ant species across 5 subfamilies. Almost 1,000 CHCs have been described for these species, composing 187 distinct homologous series and ten hydrocarbon groups. In descending order of occurrence were: n-alkanes > monomethylalkanes > dimethylalkanes > alkenes > dienes>> trimethylalkanes>

Regulation of insect cuticular hydrocarbon biosynthesis
Current Opinion in Insect ScienceCuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) play pleiotropic roles in insect survival and reproduction. They prevent desiccation and function as pheromones influencing different behaviors. While the genes in the CHC biosynthesis pathway have been extensively studied, the regulatory mechanisms that lead to different CHC compositions received far less attention.

Cuticular hydrocarbons ofAedes hendersoni cockerell andA. triseriatus (SAY)
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1994Field-caught adult male and femaleAedes hendersoni are difficult to distinguish from the sibling speciesA. triseriatus. We found that mosquitoes from the same sex of the sibling species can not be readily separated either by unique cuticular hydrocarbon components or by differences in percent composition of those components.

Cuticular hydrocarbons of the sunflower beetle, Zygogramma exclamationis
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2003Hydrocarbons were the major lipid class on the cuticular surface of adults, nymphs, and eggs of the sunflower beetle, Zygogramma exclamationis, characterized by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Minor amounts of wax ester from 40 to 48 carbon atoms in size were only detected in larvae.

Phenotypic Plasticity of Cuticular Hydrocarbon Profiles in Insects
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2018The insect integument is covered by cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) which provide protection against environmental stresses, but are also used for communication. Here we review current knowledge on environmental and insect-internal factors which shape phenotypic plasticity of solitary living insects, especially herbivorous ones.

Colony-Specific Cuticular Hydrocarbon Profile in Formica argentea Ants
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2013The cuticular hydrocarbons of the ant Formica argentea were identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Behavioral bioassays tested the role of each class of cuticular hydrocarbon in nestmate recognition, and statistical analyses looked for potential colony-specific signatures. The cuticular hydrocarbons of F.
