Exocrine glands ofPolyrhachis simplex: Chemistry and function.

A Hefetz1, H A Lloyd.   

Abstract

The mandibular glands of the Israeli weaver ant,Polyrhachis simplex, contain a mixture of 4-heptanone, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-ol;its Dufour's gland secretion consists mainly ofn-tridecane. The significance of these glandular secretions in the biology of the weaver ant is discussed.
