    Notes: Abstract We study the dependence of the forward-scattered radiation from a point source in wood smoke on the electrical conductivity of the medium. It is shown that as the number of airborne ions in the medium increases, the intensity of the forward-scattered radiation increases because of ionization. Intensity variations are due to the growth of particles because of coagulation, which occurs because the airborne ions are cooled on the surfaces of the scattering centers.

    Notes: Abstract Volatile substances in the atmosphere surrounding gregarious locustsSchistocerca gregaria andLocusta migratoria were captured and investigated by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Three aromatic derivates have been identified: phenol, guaiacol, and veratrole. Their relative percentages differ for different ages and species. Behavioral tests show that essentially phenol, guaiacol, and the mixture of the three products tend to increase the aggregation behavior in both species and thus act as “cohesion pheromones.”

    Notes: Abstract The cuticular hydrocarbons ofLocusta migratoria cinerascens—larvae and adults, males and females, gregarious and solitaries—have been investigated by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The hydrocarbons comprise 52–78% of the cuticular lipids and are divided inton-alkanes (28.7–47.3%), 3-, 4-, and 5-methylalkanes (11.3–15.8%), internally branched monomethylalkanes (13.7–19.9%), and internally branched dimethylalkanes (19.8–35.9%) with seven or nine methylenes between the two branch points. While the sexual dimorphism does not seem to be reflected in the cuticular hydrocarbon composition, clear quantitative variations favoring the longest chain alkanes have been observed between gregarious and solitary locusts, thus revealing a new phase character in these insects.

    Notes: Abstract An original homologous series of di-n-alkyl ethers has been revealed in the cuticular waxes ofLocusta migratoria cinerascens. The mass spectrometry-electron impact, and positive and negative chemical ionization of these derivatives has been investigated in order to define the optimal conditions for structural determination. The quantitative analyses have shown that the ethers C n1H2n1 + 1-O-C n2H2n2+1 with an odd number of carbon atoms (n1 even andn2 odd) are clearly predominant. Furthermore, they have made a double phasal dimorphism appear: heavier ethers in the case of the solitary insects and majority participation ofn-alkyl chains in C16 (60%) in the case of the gregarious locusts and in C18 (50%) in the solitary ones.
