The present invention provides a completely novel molting hormone receptor, which is used for efficiently screening a substance that can be applied to a disinfestant or the like. An insect molting hormone receptor comprising the following polypeptide (a) and polypeptide (b) or (c):

Molting hormone receptor and method for screening ligand to the receptor

A novel triazole derivative for use in an insecticide or an acaricide has a general formula [I]: ##STR1## (wherein R.sup.1 is an alkyl group, X is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or the like, n is an integer of 1-5, A is an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or the like, k is 0 or 1, R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom or the like, m is an integer of 1-5) and controls various injurious insects and mites, particularly mites and aphids without damaging crops.

Triazole derivatives as well as insecticide and acaricide

Triazole derivatives pest controlling agent and pest control method

A novel benzhydrazone derivative has a general formula [I]: ##STR1## (wherein R.sup.1 is a lower alkyl group, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are same or different halogen atoms and Z is a chlorine atom or an amino group) and is useful as an intermediate for the production of a triazole derivative having the following general formula [II]: ##STR2## (wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are the same as mentioned above and X is a chlorine atom located at 2- or 6-position).
