Camponotus fellah
The engagement of workers in socially cohesive trophallaxis may be underpinned by levels of octopamine in the brain. However, if workers are treated with octopamine, this increase in trophallaxis is not observed.

Octopamine | C8H11NO2 | CID 4581 - PubChem
Octopamine is a member of the class of phenylethanolamines that is phenol which is substituted at the para- position by a 2-amino-1-hydroxyethyl group. A biogenic phenylethanolamine which has been found to act as a neurotransmitter, neurohormone or neuromodulator in invertebrates. It has a role as a neurotransmitter.

Tyramine
If one has had repeated exposure to tyramine, however, there is a decreased pressor response; tyramine is degraded to octopamine, which is subsequently Therefore, after repeated tyramine exposure, these vesicles contain an increased amount of octopamine and a relatively reduced amount of norepinephrine

Amitraz
Interaction with the octopamine receptor
It's thought that the mode of action of amitraz involves the interaction with the neuromodulator octopamine. The amitraz-octopamine receptor interaction restrains these normal functions of the octopamine receptor.

and chemist, known for the identification, synthesis and pharmacological studies of more than sixty new chemical compounds, most notably serotonin and octopamine Another important chemical, also an amine, was discovered by Erspamer in 1948, in the salivary glands of the octopus, and therefore named by him octopamine

False neurotransmitter
Tyramine can also be converted into octopamine by the dopamine-beta-hydroxylase (DBH) which itself acts as a false transmitter by displacing noradrenaline
