Abstract: | - 1.1. Chemical structures were determined for the cuticular alkanes, alkenes, and certain of the alkadienes for 11 D. virilis group species.
- 2.2. Male-specific hydrocarbons occurred in five species: these were 9-heneicosene in D. americana and D. novamexicana, 10-heneicosene in D. virilis, 5,13- and 5,15-pentacosadienes in D. kanekoi, and 9-pentacosene in one strain of D. lummei.
- 3.3. Hydrocarbon profiles of newly emerged flies always differed from mature files.
- 4.4. Relationships among the species, with respect to hydrocarbon profiles, were investigated by cluster analysis.
