潘和Malaise陷阱已被广泛用于采样昆虫的丰度和多样性，但没有研究比较其性能的采样传粉者在森林生态系统。诱捕器的设计和诱捕器的颜色是影响传粉昆虫捕获量的重要参数。我们比较了泛陷阱（蓝色，黄色，白色和红色）和Malaise陷阱渔获量从森林中的三个地文省（皮埃蒙特，沿海平原，蓝岭）的美国东南部。观察到网站之间的陷阱性能的相似性与蓝盘陷阱是最有效的整体。我们的研究结果表明，不同的传粉者群体喜欢某些泛陷阱的颜色和添加颜色的Malaise陷阱影响昆虫传粉者捕获。然而，锅陷阱一般比Malaise陷阱捕获更多的传粉者。由于其成本低，简单，使用几种颜色的盘式诱捕器是一种有效的方法来采样访花昆虫的相对丰富度和物种丰富度。
Pan and Malaise traps have been used widely to sample insect abundance and diversity, but no studies have compared their performance for sampling pollinators in forested ecosystems. Malaise trap design and color of pan traps are important parameters that influence insect pollinator catches. We compared pan trap (blue, yellow, white, and red) and Malaise trap catches from forests in three physiographic provinces (Piedmont, Coastal Plain, and Blue Ridge) of the southeastern United States. Similarities in trap performance between sites were observed with blue pan traps being most effective overall. Our results showed that various pollinator groups preferred certain pan trap colors and that adding color to Malaise traps influenced insect pollinator catches. However, pan traps generally caught more pollinators than Malaise traps. Because of their low cost and simplicity, using several colors of pan traps is an effective way to sample relative abundance and species richness of flower-visiting insects.
