[NHCOLL-L:477] pan trapping for insects

[Stuart Fullerton]

Gentlefolks,

Sorry for the cross post. Just want to reach as many folks as possible.

I'm about to start a project using different colored pan traps to collect
bees and other Hymenoptera. I have talked to Rozen, Parker ,and Michener
already but I wanted to know what other folks had to say.  Does anyone
have any experience with these types of traps? What has been your
experience?  Can anyone point me in the right direction for literature on
this topic?

You can respond to me directly or to the list. 

Thanks in advance,
