Males of Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) are strongly attracted to methyl eugenol (ME), which occurs in over 450 plant species. Given this powerful attraction, ME is commonly used in surveillance and eradication programs against this invasive agricultural pest. Preliminary observations revealed that B. dorsalis males visited MEbearing flowers of the fruit fly orchid (FFO) Bulbophyllum cheiri subsp. cheiri even when these occurred near traps baited with far greater quantities of ME. Based on this evidence, we undertook field experiments to assess the attraction of feral B. dorsalis males to FFO flowers relative to commercial sources of ME. At the edge of a secondary forest, an FFO flower was placed midway between two ME sources located 20 m apart, and attracted flies were collected over an entire day. When the ME sources were unenclosed (not in traps), the relative attractiveness of FFO flowers to B. dorsalis males varied with the amount of ME placed nearby. The FFO flower (i) attracted a similar proportion of males when 1 g ME was placed at the flanking sites but (ii) captured signifi cantly smaller proportions when the nearby sites had 6 or 10 g commercial ME sources. Similar tests with the commercial sources enclosed in traps showed that (i) 6 g ME sources in Steiner traps attracted significantly more B. dorsalis males than FFO flowers but (ii) 10 g sources in Clear traps (1 L buckets with 4 entrance holes) did not outperform the FFO flowers, presumably owing to limited dispersion of volatiles from the trap. Implications of these results for surveillance programs are discussed.

α-Acaridial [2(E)-(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)butenedial] is a novel monoterpene secreted from the house dust mites. Because of its molecular nature of a highly reactive, small lipidic compound, we addressed whether α-acaridial might function as a haptenic allergen that induced allergic contact dermatitis. Mice sensitized with α-acaridial were challenged by the same antigen on the ear skin. After 2 days, significant ear swelling with a prominent infiltration of CD4+ T lymphocytes was observed. In vitro, α-acaridial exhibited an outstanding ability to quickly interact with and chemically modify a reference protein. Virtually all cysteine residues and a sizable fraction of lysine residues were found to be selectively modified, suggesting that α-acaridial could potentially interact with any proteins. Previously, numerous mite-derived proteinaceous allergens have been associated with contact dermatitis. Our study now emphasizes that small lipidic compounds released from mites comprise a new class of mite allergens, and therefore, is of significant medical implications.
