Methods
Life forms: bees

Sampling methods: no design,sweep nets

Sample size: 238 individuals

Years: 1995

Days: 6

Sampling comments: "A sample consisted of all the bees collected within the crop field in a single locality at several net trapping periods (0600 to 1100 h) during 5–6 non-consecutive days... The accumulated net trapping effort per field (sampling effort unit) totalled 25–30 hours spread over the entire blooming of the crop... Bees were collected with net sweeping (30 cm entomological nets)"
