Male D. dorsalis from colonies in Taiwan and Hawaii were evaluated for their limit of response to various analogs of methyleugenol. The results are interpreted in terms of the geometry and allosteric requirements of the antennal receptor that triggers the characteristic methyleugenol reflex. This receptor has evolved for complementarity to all portions of the methyleugenol mol. and responds only to ortho-substituted benzenes with adjacent atoms or isoelectronic equivalents Substantial differences in responses of Taiwan and Hawaiian D. dorsalis suggest that perceptible evolution of the receptor protein has occurred during the past 50 yr. A plausible scheme for the coevolution of flies with plants containing phenylpropionoid essential oils is outlined.
