Abstract
The cockroach, Periplaneta americana, running on a Y-ring globe, moves downwind if an air current is directed toward the head. However, if the air current carries sex pheromone, then upwind movement is elicited. This orientation behavior is apparently a mechanism to facilitate the orientation of males searching for pheromone-secreting females.
摘要
美洲大蠊在Y形环行球上爬行时，如果气流吹向其头部，它会顺风移动。然而，如果气流携带性信息素，那么它就会引发逆风移动。这种定向行为显然是一种机制，有助于雄性蟑螂寻找分泌信息素的雌性蟑螂时进行定向。
