ALAS Malaise Collections, 2005 Expeditions

Twenty Malaise traps were established in the vicinity of the farm house during the first two days of the first expedition. Five additional traps, numbered 21-25, were placed by Mike Sharkey and his students.

The sites were subjectively chosen to be in small clearings or treefall gaps. Ten of the traps were also used as flight-intercept traps (see under intercept traps). Bottles were harvested at two-week intervals, 5 intervals for each trap (10 weeks total, 5 samples for each trap). Collection heads contained 95% ethanol. On harvest, bottles were topped off (to prevent sloshing during transport) and immediately transported to the ALAS lab. The ethanol was changed once, and samples were stored in a freezer. A total of 125 samples was obtained (25 traps x 5 samples). Samples are listed below.

The data fields, in order, are:

Collection code: a unique code for a collection. The "15" indicates that it is from the 1500m site, the "M" indicates it is a Malaise sample, the following two numbers are the trap number (see map), and the final three-digit number is a serial number beginning with 001 for the first Malaise sample and ending with 125 for the last Malaise sample. In addition, two codes are for pooled samples, one for all Malaise traps also used as flight intercept traps (Trap numbers 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 14, 16, 18, 20), and one for all other ALAS traps (Trap numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 13, 15, 17, 19).

First collection date: First day of the sample period, in format day-month-year.

Second collection date: Day the sample was harvested.
