From: The attraction of virgin female hide beetles (Dermestes maculatus) to cadavers by a combination of decomposition odour and male sex pheromones

Figure 2

Responses of female hide beetles in Y-olfactometer choice experiments to cadaver odour (post-bloated or dry remains) and to pure air (one-sided binomial probability tests) versus pure solvent control. Numbers inside of the bars denote identified ratios of the particular test preferences. Distinct letters label different test series. Post-bloating stage: day 10 post-mortem; Dry-remains stage: day 75 post-mortem.
