• MEASURING BEE DIVERSITY IN DIFFERENT EUROPEAN HABITATS AND BIOGEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS (2008, methodology): “We recommend UV-bright pan traps as the most suitable method for such pollinator monitoring schemes (see Plate 1), because this method proved to be highly efficient at sampling the overall bee fauna and was not biased by surveyor experience.”
• Local and landscape management drive trait‐mediated biodiversity of nine taxa on small grassland fragments (2015, methodology): “Each trap consisted of a yellow plastic cup (23 cm diameter, filled with salt water), treated with UV-reflecting paint and mounted at vegetation height to maximize trapping efficiency (Stephen & Rao, 2005; Westphal et al., 2008).”
• Assessing bee species richness in two Mediterranean communities: importance of habitat type and sampling techniques (2011, methodology): “…types, including a montane valley with cereal grain and grasses, an irrigated fruit production area and sage brush, a high desert sage scrub (Stephen and Rao 2005 [using Asian Ladybug- and Japanese Beetle traps functioning with the same principle as pan traps]), as well as annual crop…”
• Short-term responses of native bees to livestock and implications for managing ecosystem services in grasslands (2012, methodology): “Blue vane traps consist of a plastic container (15 cm diameter 3 15 cm high) with a blue polypropylene screw funnel with two 24 3 13 cm semitransparent blue polypropylene cross vanes of 3 mm thickness (SpringStar, Woodinville, WA, USA) (Stephen and Rao 2005).”
