Lineatin is a pheromone produced by female striped ambrosia beetle, Trypodendron lineatum Olivier. These kind of beetles is responsible for extensive damage of coniferous forest infestation in Europe and North America. Since lineatin can act as lures used for mass-trapping of T. lineatum, it is being studied to apply as a pest control reagent.
