Different pitfall types. A = Jar or yoghurt can. B and C = traps with an outer can to make collecting of the sample easier. B = funnel trap with small jar. C = trap for moist biotopes (the outer can contains gravel or stones to prevent the can from being pushed up by groundwater). V = preservative (usually formaldehyde 3–4% or propylene glycol), S = stones or gravel.
