Product Information
Life is everywhere, and this device helps students find it. This device allows you to gather nematodes, microarthropods, and other organisms from leaf litter samples simply and effectively. Place litter in the funnel and affix the lamp above it. The heat from the light will cause the insects to migrate downward, through the attached metal sieve and into the collecting jar where they can be observed. Using the interactive dichotomous key, students can figure out what types of litter-dwellers they harvested. Developed by Science Kit Product Development Team. Includes berlese funnel and stand, 40 watt light bulb, 473 mL widemouth jar with cap, clamp on light socket, instructions. Grades 7–11.
