• Six minor secretory compounds: phenol, p-cresol, guaiacol, methyl benzoate, benzaldehyde dimethyl acetal and creosol have been identified from a methanol extract of the millipede Chamberlinius hualienensis Wang at the 7th nymphal and adult stages of reproductive migration. These compounds, except for methyl benzoate, were detected for the first time from C. hualienensis. Almost all female nymphs contained greater amounts of the compounds than male nymphs. In females the amounts of methyl benzoate and guaiacol remarkably decreased with development of the nymphal stage. Although only a defensive role has been postulated for millipede secretions, such a quantitative change in secretory compounds at the reproductive migration stage suggests they may possibly have a significant physiological function related to reproduction and/or development.
