Hymenoptera is a very large and diverse insect order that includes the majority of both the social and the parasitic insects. With such diversity comes a variety and complexity of semiochemicals that reflect the varied biology of members of this order. This chapter reviews the chemical identification of pheromones and semiochemicals in the order Hymenoptera since 1990. For this review, the species in Hymenoptera have been classified as solitary, parasitic, or social. The chemical diversity of semiochemicals in Hymenoptera and future trends in pheromone identification are also discussed.
膜翅目是一个非常庞大且多样的昆虫目,其中包括了大部分社会性昆虫和寄生性昆虫。如此丰富的多样性带来了各种各样的化感物质,这些物质反映了该目成员多样的生物学特性。本章回顾了自1990年以来膜翅目昆虫信息素和化感物质的化学鉴定情况。在本次综述中,膜翅目的物种被分为独居型、寄生型或社会型。文中还讨论了膜翅目化感物质的化学多样性以及信息素鉴定的未来趋势。
