Monitoring of beetles associated with fungi using Kaila traps

Monitoring of beetles associated with fungi using Kaila traps In the present work, we tested the possibilities of using modified window-flight Kaila traps for studying insects associated with fungi. Criteria allowing us to reveal the character of association between an insect and fungus have been developed. We analyzed the association between Staphylinidae and a species of polypore fungi. We assessed the suitability of Kaila traps for studying beetles associated with fungi, as well as their selectivity; we give recommendations on their use. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Moscow University Biological Sciences Bulletin Springer Journals

Abstract

In the present work, we tested the possibilities of using modified window-flight Kaila traps for studying insects associated with fungi. Criteria allowing us to reveal the character of association between an insect and fungus have been developed. We analyzed the association between Staphylinidae and a species of polypore fungi. We assessed the suitability of Kaila traps for studying beetles associated with fungi, as well as their selectivity; we give recommendations on their use.
