Malaise Trap Sampling

Malaise Trap Sampling is a standardized entomological field method that employs a tent-like, passive intercept trap designed to capture flying insects, particularly hymenopterans and other small-bodied arthropods, by directing their movement into a collection unit via gravity and light orientation, thereby enabling systematic monitoring of pollinator communities over time and space.
