摘要：

An inexpensive suction sampler was constructed by modifying a gasoline powered leaf blower/vacuum (Weed Eater(R)). Comparison of the sampler with use of an aquatic dip net to collect a planthopper species from emergent aquatic plants showed that the sampler was more efficient in collecting adults and was especially useful for capturing early instars. The Weed Eater(R) sampler was comparable or superior to a D-Vac for collecting grassland arthropods (Wright and Stewart 1992). The total cost of this light (<6 kg.) sampler, including modifications, is ca. $130.
