ResumoAbstract Extracts of Monomorium antipodum Forel from New Zealand contained trans-2-ethyl-5-nonylpyrrolidine (1) and trans-2-ethyl-5-(10-undecenyl) pyrrolidine (2) in a 1:1 ratio.The presence of these compounds suggests a closer relationship of this species with previously examined Australian Monomorium species than to those most commonly found in New Zealand.
