CO2: as larval attractants to soil insects /
CO2: atraente de larvas de insetos subterrâneos [PDF]
Soil insects are very difficult to be managed. We reviewed the characterization of the CO2 as larval attractants to soil insects. Most studies were achieved with larvae of Diabrotica spp. First instar larvae used CO2 to find host plant.

Thaumastocoris peregrinus is an introduced “true bug” that is now a severe pest in Eucalyptus plantations of various Southern Hemisphere countries. The semiochemicals of thaumastocorids are completely unknown. Therefore, volatile chemicals from T. peregrinus nymphs and adults were identified as possible leads for pheromones potentially useful for ...
