Enantiomeric composition of a pheromone is instrumental with respect to the behaviour mediating capacity of the signal. This especially stands for bark beetles (Coleoptera Curculionidae, Scolytinae) where even different populations of the same species employ pheromone of different enantiomeric composition (Seybold, 1993 Miller et al., 1996). Enantioselective production of, and response to pheromones has been demonstrated in many species of Scolytinae subfamily (Birch, 1984 Borden, 1985 Byers, 1989). Electrophysiological studies have revealed that species such as Ips pini Say, 1. typographus (L.), I. paraconfusus Lanier, Scolytus multistriatus (Marsham), S. scolytus (F.) and Trypodendron lineatum (Olivier) and many others have olfactory receptor cells specific to optical isomers of aggregation pheromones (Mustaparta et al., 1980,1984 Wadhams et al., 1982 Tommeras et al., 1984).
