| Abstract: | Summary The trail and alarm pheromones of P. pungens were investigated. The nine fatty acids (C14 0, C160, C161, C180, C181, C182, C183, C204, C205) were the components of the trail pheromone, while the alarm pheromone was found to be the mixture of 4 monoterpene hydrocarbons ( -pinene, camphene,  -pinene, limonene).The authors are indebted to Dr Masao Kubota for identification of the ant. |
