Secretions of stingless bees the dufour glands of some frieseomelitta species (apidae, meliponinae)
The first recorded analyses of meliponine bee Dufour gland secretions by gas chromatographicmass spectrometry on three species of Frieseomelitta showed these glands contain a mixture of oxygenated compounds and terpenoids with some hydrocarbons. In F. varia the major substances are eicosenal, 1-eicosenol and 2-pentadecanone. In F. sylvestrii they are pentacosene, nonadecanal and heptacosene. F. silvestrii languida, with the largest glands and the most complex mixture, has geranylfarnesol, followed by 1-tetradecanol and tetradecanal, making it quite different from F. silvestrii.
