Zusammenfassung

Die Duftorgane der männlichen BärenspinnerUtetheisa pulchelloides undU. lotrix (Fam. Arctiidae) scheiden Dihydropyrrolizine aus, die im Typ den Pheromonen von Schmetterlingen der Subfamilie Danainae (Fam. Papilionidae) gleichen. Wahrscheinlich handelt es sich um Derivate von Pyrrolizidin-Alkaloiden, die in den Wirtsplanzen der Raupen in hoher Konzentration vorkommen.
