✦ Synopsis
Electrical responses of the whole antenna (electroantennogram) and that of the single sensillum trichodeum (electrosensillogram) of male moth of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis, to their two pheromone components, (Z)and (E)-11-tetradecenyl acetates, were recorded simultaneously. The configuration characteristics of both responses resemble each other, and demonstrate an interaction between sensilla trichodea. The typical difference in the response pattern between London (Ontario) and New York strains of this moth seems t o be a property of the sensillum trichodeum.
