Extract

During a series of experiments at Rothamsted with the mechanical insect trap described by Williams & Milne (Bull. Ent. Res. 1935, 26, p. 543) it became necessary to make counts of large numbers of insects three or four times a day over periods of several weeks. The following is a description of a device which was designed to facilitate the handling of the insects and to increase the speed and accuracy of the counting.
