The material was collected using Barber soil traps, inside the traps using a 2.5% NaCl solution to capture arthropod species. The collected material was cleaned, brought to the laboratory where the species were identified by harvest date, traps and variants. A number of 12 traps were used, installed in two rows at a distance of 12 m between rows and 6-8m between traps per row. In 2022, seven collections were made from May to October, and the most frequently collected species were: Harpalus distinguendus; Anisodactylus binotatus. In 2023, collections of arthropods from Barber traps were made and the most frequently collected species were: Anisodactylus signatus, Anisodactylus binotatus, Pseudophonus pubescens; Calathus fuscipes.
