Abstract I Carpophilus sayi, a nitidulid beetle vector of the oak wilt fungus, Ceratocystis fagacearwn, was shown to have a male-produced aggregation pheromone. 2 Six male-specific chemicals were identified from collections of volatiles. The two major compounds were (2E,4E,6E,8£)-3,5-dimethyl-7-ethyl-2,4,6,8­ undecatetraene and (2E,4E,6E,8£)-3,5,7-trimethyl-2,4,6,8-undecatetraene, in a ratio of 100: 18. These compounds, in a similar ratio, were previously reported to be the pheromone of Carpophilus lugubris, a closely related species. The four minor C. sayi compounds (less than 4% as abundant as the first) were also alkyl-branched hydrocarbons and consisted of two additional tetraenes and two trienes. 3 The pheromone of C. lugubris was re-examined to refine the comparison with C. sayi, and C. lugubris was found to have the same additional, minor tetraenes as C. sayi, but not the trienes. 4 A synthetic mixture of the two major compounds was behaviourally active fOf both sexes of C. sayi in oak woodlands in Minnesota. The pheromone was tested in combination with fermenting whole wheat bread dough (a potent synergist of nitidulid pheromones). The combination of the 500-llg pheromone dose and dough attracted at least 30-fold more C. sayi than either pheromone or dough by itself. The synergized pheromone has potential as a tool for monitoring insect vector activity in an integrated management program for oak wilt. 5 Although C. lllgllbris was not present at the Minnesota test sites, two other Carpophillis species, Carpophilus brachypterus and CarpophilliS corticinus, were clearly cross-attracted to the synergized pheromone of C. sayi.

Recent studies have identified insect species in the family Nitidulidae that likely account for the majority of above-ground transmission during spring in several Midwestern states based on frequencies of fungus-contaminated beetles dispersing in oak stands and visiting fresh wounds. Other investigations have utilized quantitative and spatial data to predict root-graft spread in red oak stands. Although the disease is widely distributed in the regions, disease severity ranges from low to high among the regions and within states of the Midwestern region. Knowledge of spread frequencies and relationships between disease spread/severity and various physiographic factors is important in the development of tools for effective disease management. Key words: Ceratocystis fagacearum, disease spread, Nitidulidae New oak wilt infection centers (= foci) are the result of above-ground transmission of the pathogen (Ceratocystis fagacearum (Bretz) Hunt) by animal vectors, primarily insects. Outward expansion of foci from the initial infection(s) occur below ground when fungal propagules move through vascular root connections between a diseased and a nearby healthy oak.

The combination of pheromone and bread dough was significantly more effective than either type of bait alone.
