Abstract.: The attractiveness of Cinnamomum camphora (Laurales: Lauraceae) blocks and essential oil to Lasioderma serricorne (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Anobiidae) adults was investigated. The results showed that the behavioral response values of L. serricorne adults to C. camphora blocks significantly increased with increasing doses above the dose of 0.8 g. The highest behavioral response values of L. serricorne adults were 93.33% to C. camphora blocks and 81.67% to C. camphora essential oil, respectively. C. camphora blocks had stronger attractiveness to L. serricorne adults than C. camphora oil. These results demonstrate that the effectiveness to control L. serricorne in practice of C. camphora blocks and C. camphora oil deserve to be further investigated.Supported by National Program on Key R & D Project (No. 2017YFC1600804), Key Technologies R & D Program of the Education Department of Henan Province (No. 16A210017), and Province Key Laboratory of Transformation and Utilization of Cereal Resource, Henan University of Technology.
