Abstract
A small evaporation cup which will hold concentrated aromatic chemicals has proven to be useful in making studies of insect chemotropism under field conditions when liquid traps are employed. Insects attracted to the chemicals in the vials fall into the water surrounding the evaporation cups. Protective covers over the vials keep out rain and spray materials.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
