In the context of the general decline of insect populations,monitoring of insect populations has become particularly important.However,due to the wide variety of insect species and various sampling methods,insect monitoring methods generally lack standardization.To address this issue,we summarize five main insect sampling methods--the Malayan net method,the light trap method,the color plate method,the trap method,and the manual net capture method,and propose corresponding application suggestions,providing some methodological guidance for the standardization of insect population investigation and monitoring methods.
