Cuticular hydrocarbons were used to differentiate among the following North American populations of Aedes albopictus: Chicago, Ill.; Milford, Del.; Jacksonville, Fla.; San Antonio, Tex.; New Orleans, La.; Houston, Tex.; and Lexington, Ky. Forty cuticular hydrocarbon peaks were identified from each population using gas chromatography electron impact-mass spectrometry: 16 n-alkanes, 21 monomethylalkanes, and 3 dimethylalkanes. Fourteen peaks occurred at equivalent chain lengths greater than 38.65 and consisted of complex mixtures of dimethyl- and trimethylalkanes. Quantitative analyses were performed on pooled samples of five females from each population using flame ionization gas chromatography. All populations contained the same cuticular hydrocarbons, but showed differences in percent composition. Five of seven populations were separable by discriminant analysis of hydrocarbon components.
伊利诺伊州芝加哥市；特拉华州米尔福德市；佛罗里达州杰克逊维尔市；得克萨斯州圣安东尼奥市；路易斯安那州新奥尔良市；得克萨斯州休斯敦市；以及肯塔基州列克星敦市。使用气相色谱电子轰击质谱法从每个种群中鉴定出40个表皮碳氢化合物峰：16种正构烷烃、21种单甲基烷烃和3种二甲基烷烃。14个峰出现在大于38.65的等效链长处，由二甲基和三甲基烷烃的复杂混合物组成。使用火焰离子化气相色谱法对来自每个种群的五只雌性样本的混合样本进行定量分析。所有种群都含有相同的表皮碳氢化合物，但在百分组成上存在差异。通过对碳氢化合物成分的判别分析，七个种群中的五个是可分离的。
