Abstract
Leaf oil of Guarea macrophylla (Meliaceae) is composed mainly of sesquiterpenes, whose degree of oxygenation is seasonally dependent. Analysis of the oil by GC-electroantennographic detection employing antennae of Hypsipyla grandella females revealed five components that could be responsible for the attraction of this insect pest to the plant.
