Micro-ecological self-accumulation water layered collembola feeding device

Abstract

The invention discloses a micro-ecology automatic water condensation type layered springtail feeding device and belongs to the technical field of entomology. The device is composed of luminous struts (1), a cooling air pump (2), cultivation water condensation trays (3), a cultivation cylinder (4), an air guiding strut pipe (5), two-way connecting pipes (6), a power line (7), a plug (8) and a control switch (9). The device is characterized in that each cultivation water condensation tray (3) is in the shape of a tray overall and is made of a 1-2 mm thick tinplate sheet, copper sheet or stainless steel sheet, and each cultivation water condensation tray cavity (10) is used for containing moss soil, providing food and water needed by living of springtail and providing a living space for springtail; the cultivation water condensation trays (3) are supported and separated through the luminous struts (1), so that a feeding space provided with multiple layers is formed in the cultivation cylinder (4), and then the springtail living environment in the natural state is simulated. The device is easy to manufacture, high in operability, low in cost and obvious in effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a microecological self-aggregation water-layered springtail breeding device, belonging to the technical field of entomology. Background technique [0002] Collembola, commonly known as Collembola, are a class of widely distributed, primitive, wingless arthropods. Wide adaptability, mostly found in wet and cold areas. Winters in adult form and is very mobile in the snow. Exist in a large amount in various undisturbed litter, soil and moss, feed on mycelium, obtain water by adhering to the lower surface of solid objects by abdominal tube and absorb water droplets formed by condensation on the lower surface . In experimental research, live springtails are often needed. However, in the past, due to technical and other reasons, it was very difficult to raise springtails in the laboratory, which brought great inconvenience to related scientific research and was also a bottleneck for many researches. Therefore, how to develop a ki...
