Table 2. Hill’s diversity numbers by sampling method used.

Sampling method H0 H1 H2
Method 1 (outdoor resting box) 17 8.6 6.1
Method 1 (outdoor BPD hop cage) 22 9.4 6.1
Method 2 (light traps near hosts) 36 4.2 2.4

H0 is equivalent to species richness, H1 is the natural exponential of the Shannon-Weiner diversity index and H2 is the reciprocal of Simpson’s index [62,63].
