The defensive secretions from the nymphs and the adults of both sexes inP. apterus were chemically investigated. Forty components were identified from the nymphal posterior dorsoabdominal glands and 35 from the adult metathoracic glands of both sexes. Within the 43 identified chemicals, we found 23 aldehydes, five saturated hydrocarbons, five alcohols, three ketones, three lactones, two terpenes, one phenol and one ester. Thirteen of these compounds had never been reported within the Heteroptera. Whereas eight components are specific to the nymphs, methyl pentenal, (E)-2-hexenol, and heptadecanal are the only adult-specific components. The biological role of all the identified chemicals is almost unknown inP. apterus and is discussed comparatively with regard to other Heteroptera.
对 P.apterus 的若虫和两性成虫的防御分泌物进行了化学研究。从若虫的后背腹腺中鉴定出 40 种成分,从两性成虫的后胸腺中鉴定出 35 种成分。在所鉴定的 43 种化学物质中,我们发现了 23 种醛、5 种饱和烃、5 种醇、3 种酮、3 种内酯、2 种萜烯、1 种苯酚和 1 种酯。其中 13 种化合物在半翅目昆虫中从未有过报道。有 8 种成分是若虫特有的,而甲基戊烯醛、(E)-2-己烯醇和十七醛是成虫特有的成分。在 P.apterus 中,所有鉴定出的化学物质的生物学作用几乎都是未知的,并与其他半翅目昆虫进行了比较讨论。
