Field experiments using baited sticky stovepipe traps and Lindgren multiple funnel traps were done near Chalk River, Ontario, Canada, to determine the effects of conifer monoterpenes (.alpha.-pinene, .beta.-pinene, myrcene, limonene, camphene and caene) and ethanol on the number of beetles captured. Several species of conifer-feeding beetles were attracted to the monoterpenes or to monoterpenes and ethanol, including species in the families Cerambycidae (Asemum striatum, Acmaeops proteus, Xylotrechus undulatus, Monochamus scutellatus), Curculionidae (Pissodes strobi, Hylobius pales), and Scolytidae (Dryocoetes autographus, Ips grandicollis). Species of Buprestidae generally did not respond to the monoterpenes or to ethanol. Species of Cleridae (Thanasimus dubius, Enocleus nigres rufiventris, Enoclerus nigrifrons gerhardi) which are predators of conifer bark bettles were attracted to the monoterpenes and ethanol was evident for M. scutellatus, H. pales and D. autographus. While .alpha.-pinene was the most potent attractant for most beetle species, monoterpenes other than .alpha.-pinene synergized attraction to ethanol for D. autographus. Attraction of beetles to commercial turpentine and ethanol did not differ significantly from attraction to a pure monoterpene blend and ethanol.
