Abstract
The common grass yellow butterfly Eurema mandarina formerly Eurema hecabe mandarina Lepidoptera Pieridae recently has been separated taxonomically from a subtropical population of Eurema hecabe in Japan This species is widely distributed in the temperate region of Japan and feeds mainly on various ligneous plants within the Fabaceae We attempted to identify an oviposition stimulant for E mandarina from its primary hosts Albizia julibrissin and Lespedeza cuneata In both hosts crude extract and an aqueous fraction elicited oviposition responses from gravid females A polar subfraction of the aqueous fraction also stimulated high ovipositionstimulatory activity comparable to the original aqueous fraction suggesting that E mandarina females use watersoluble compounds for host recognition Subsequent activitydirected fractionation by ion exchange chromatography indicated that one of the key substances was contained in the neutral/amphoteric fraction Chemical analyses revealed that the active fractions of both hosts contained d+pinitol as the major component We examined female responses to authentic dpinitol and found that it induced oviposition responses at concentrations greater than 01 Since this cyclitol is omnipresent in Fabaceae we conclude that dpinitol plays a role in mediating oviposition of E mandarina on fabaceous plantsThe HRMS and the optical rotation measurements were conducted using a Thermo Fischer LTQ Orbitrap XL hybrid mass spectrometer and a JASCO DIP370 spectropolarimeter respectively at the Natural Science Center for Basic Research and Development NBARD Hiroshima University
