Abstract
The anal gland secretions of Bothriomyrmex syrius Forel workers contain cis-3-dodecenoic acid and small amounts of trans-2-dodecenoic acid and oleic acid. The female secretions consist of 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one and a trace of alpha-terpineol. The presence of the ketone in the female secretion may explain the success of these ants as temporary social parasites of the Tapinoma ants.
摘要
叙利亚双瘤蚁工蚁的肛门腺分泌物含有顺式-3-十二碳烯酸以及少量反式-2-十二碳烯酸和油酸。雌蚁分泌物由6-甲基-5-庚烯-2-酮和微量的α-松油醇组成。雌蚁分泌物中这种酮的存在或许可以解释这些蚂蚁作为塔皮诺蚁临时社会性寄生虫取得成功的原因。
