Araba Bioscan 13-20 November 2020

Data for the period 13-20 November 2020

See the Araba Bioscan Project page for background information on the project and methods.

Notes

As with recent weeks, a relatively low number and diversity of insects (particularly when compared with the five-day test of a SLAM trap around 10 m away.

Over the next week, I will compare the current Malaise trap location with another Malaise trap located near the position used for the SLAM trap.

The collecting medium was 95% isopropyl alcohol.
