Attractant
 (

An attractant is any chemical that attracts an organism, e.g. i) synthetic lures; ii) aggregation and sex (intraspecific interactions); and iii) (interspecific interactions)


Synomone
An interspecific that is beneficial to both interacting organisms, the emitter and receiver, e.g. floral synomone of certain species () attracts fruit fly males (: ) as . In this true mutualistic inter-relationship, both organisms gain benefits in their respective sexual reproduction - i.e. orchid flowers are pollinated and the fruit fly males are rewarded with a precursor or booster; and the floral synomones, also act as rewards to pollinators, are in the form of (e.g. ) and (e.g. and anisyl acetone/a combination of the three phenylbutanoids.
