采用四选竞技场的方法，对澳大利亚蜂Melittobia australica Girault和澳大利亚蜂Melittobia australica Girault两种近缘寄生蜂的长翅型和短翅型进行了雄蜂挥发性引诱剂的筛选。大花这两个物种和形式的处女女性强烈吸引新鲜杀死捣碎和完整的男性和生活的男性。它们对死亡至少5天的雄性和空白对照无反应。交配的女性是漠不关心的男性，无论男性的条件。生物测定表明，这两个物种的雄性性信息素来源于腹部。
A 4-choice arena was used to test for evidence of a volatile male-produced attractant in macropterous and brachypterous forms of 2 closely related parasitic wasps, Melittobia australica Girault and M. femorata Dahms. Virgin females of both species and forms were strongly attracted to freshly killed mashed and intact males and to living males. They were unresponsive toward males which had been dead for at least 5 days and toward empty controls. Mated females were indifferent to males, regardless of male condition. Bioassays implicated the abdomen as the source of the male sex pheromone in both species.
