Resumo

ITS FIELD PERFORMANCE. Rhynchophorol (6-Methyl-2-hepten-4-ol) is the major constituent of the aggregation pheromone of Rhynchophorus palmarum L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), which is released by males of this species.The racemic mixture has been produced in one step-simplified preparation.The pheromone is placed into ampoules and furnished to coconut farmers.In the field, traps baited with Rhynchophorol and pieces of sugarcane attract both males and females, reducing the population of R. palmarum.The best conditions for field application are showed.
