The yellow secretion of idolothripine thrips, Bactrothips brevitubus (Thysanoptera : Phlaeothripidae) was analyzed by GLC, GC-MS and TLC. Decanoic, trans-4-decenoic, dodecanoic, cis-5- and trans-3-dodecenoic acids were identified, in which trans-4-decenoic acid was a major component (48.5%). Juglone (5-hydroxy-1, 4-naphthoquinone) was also identified in the yellow substance.
