Tray-type Berlese Funnel

About this product

The Tray-type Berlese Funnel allows you to extract soil-dwelling arthropods from leaf litter or soil samples without the use of a heat source. This makes it extremely useful for fieldwork and for use at sites with no electricity.

The Tray-type Berlese Funnel consists of a black nylon funnel into which fits a plastic tray. This tray is fitted with a plastic filter with 6 x 6mm mesh. The top compartment is made of white nylon netting which allows moisture from the sample to evaporate. At the base of the funnel is a tube connector which enables the 50ml eppendorf collecting tube to be easily attached and removed.
