摘要：

Lipids from the paracloacal glands of adult Chinese alligators (Alligator sinensis) were analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Acetates, aliphatic alcohols, free fatty acids and waxes consisting primarily of hexadecanoates were indicated in the secretions of males and females. Cholesterol, a diterpene hydrocarbon, and a diterpene ketone were detected in secretions of males but not in those of females. Lipids identified in the paracloacal secretions of A. sinensis are compared with those reported from the American alligator and other crocodilians.
