Isopropanol attracts the green lacewing, Chrysopa quadripunctata (Neuroptera: Chrysopidae)

Abstract

Adult female green lacewings, Chrysopa quadripunctata Burmeister, were attracted to traps baited with 45% isopropanol in an unsprayed apple orchard in Missouri, USA. No lacewings were attracted to the unbaited traps. To the best of our knowledge this is the first report on a semiochemical that attracts lacewings of this species.
