This study looked at the differences in bee community composition between estimates obtained from pan traps vs. netting. Comparing species richness, evenness and community composition between the two sampling types from the years 2009-2017 and 2009-2021. Based on a rate of bees caught per hour, without the Bombus genus, bee bowls were more efficient, however, the catch rate of the Bombus genus alone was much higher than the catch rate of the bowls. However, bee bowls still caught a wider range of genus, with the netting still missing around 50 species over the course of the years studied. However, the nets were able to catch larger bodied bees that were missed by the bowls. Overall, it was determined that to get a full understanding of the bee genus/species populations, both bee bowls and netting is needed.
