Magarey et al. (2008) describe the equipment used in spore trapping. Briefly,
Burkard ‘Sporewatch spore and pollen samplers’ (spore traps) were used, consisting of an air
pump (constant 10 L/min inflow), an orifice of slit design (14 mm × 2 mm), a round drum
revolving at a constant speed, and a sticky tape coated with petroleum placed on the
periphery of the drum.
