Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of insect traps, in particular to a trap for burial beetles. Background Art

[0002] Mortuary beetles belong to the family Mortuaryidae, within the superfamily Cryptoptera of the suborder Polyphaga in the order Coleoptera. Currently, 15 genera and 186 species are distributed worldwide, with 11 genera and over 80 species found in China. In the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Mortuary beetles are primarily found in the genera Carcass, Carcass, Carcass, and Carcass. Mortuary beetles are detritivores, primarily feeding on animal carcasses or other decaying matter. Some are obligate or facultative predators, preying on snails, earthworms, and small insects; only a few are herbivores. In the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, animal carcasses provide food for these plateau beetles, while these detritivores also serve as scavengers of the plateau grasslands. Insects that prey on Mortuary beetles, along with other groups of detritivores, occur around animal carcasses, forming micro-ecosystems. Mortuary beetles are not only decomposers of animal remains, but their transport of carrion as food for their offspring also contributes to carbon cycling and maintains ecosystem balance. The special feeding and reproduction behavior of this group make it an important link in the alpine grassland ecosystem.

[0003] In order to study the species composition of burial beetles in the area and understand the biological characteristics and living habits of burial beetles, it is necessary to collect burial beetles through traps for observation and research. At present, the attractants of traps and the collection tanks are in the same space, and the collected burial beetles are mixed with the attractants, which are difficult to clean and distinguish. In addition, the collected burial beetles have a short storage time and need to be recovered in a short time. Without protective devices, they are easily damaged. Utility Model Content

The protective top cover is used to prevent rainwater from entering the attracting port in rainy weather.

[0007] The collection device includes a mesh trough and a collection tank. The mesh trough is funnel-shaped and can emit the smell of the attractant. It can also collect the fallen burial beetle insects into the collection tank for easy collection and separation. The upper end of the mesh trough is hung on the upper edge of the attractant trough, and the bottom of the mesh trough is detachably connected to the collection tank. The collection tank is suspended from the bottom of the attractant trough to facilitate the placement of the attractant in the attractant trough.

[0010] An identification plate is provided on the top of the protective cover, and the identification plate is detachably connected to the protective cover.

[0011] The trapping port is arranged corresponding to the net slot in the trapping trough, the protective top cover is arranged corresponding to the trapping port, the diameter of the trapping trough is larger than the opening diameter of the trapping port, and the diameter of the protective top cover is larger than the opening diameter of the trapping port.

[0012] A plurality of connecting rods are arranged between the conical cylinder and the protective top cover. The connecting rods are evenly distributed, and the spacing between the connecting rods is greater than 2 centimeters. A power supply is arranged in the protective top cover, and a light strip is arranged on the connecting rod. The power supply is connected to the light strip.

[0013] Attractants are placed in the attractant groove of the collecting device, and preservation liquid is placed in the collecting tank in order to preserve the collected insects for a long time.

[0014] The collection tank is made of transparent material, which makes it easy to observe the collection situation.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: an attractant groove is arranged on the part of the attractant buried below the ground surface, and a protective device is arranged above the ground, which can well protect the attractant from being damaged; the collecting device of the attractant is detachably connected to the attractant groove, separating the attractant from the collected insects, and the collecting device is divided into a funnel-shaped net groove and a transparent collection tank, the net groove can emit the smell of the attractant in the attractant groove, so as to better attract the burial beetle insects, and a preservation liquid can be placed in the collection tank, so as to preserve the collected burial beetle insects for a long time; the net groove and the collection tank are detachably connected, which is convenient for recovering the burial beetle insects in the attractant and also convenient for observing the collection situation in the collection tank.
