Abstract
A sex stimulant to the Periplaneta males was isolated from various plant leaves and identified as germacrene D. The compound was active with a threshold amount of 10μg to the males of Periplaneta americana L. and P. japonica Karny. The response elicited with germacrene D was identical with that caused by the female sex pheromone of the each species.
