Abstract

An effective rearing chamber for aquatic insects can be made from inexpensive commercially available products. An angled air line is attached to a round 400 ml Rubbermaid® dish with a snap-on lid to create a circular flow with bubbles. The lid included with the dish can be modified to accept a tube with fine mesh screen at one end for capturing emerging adults. This chamber is a reliable and effective technique for studying larval behavior and obtaining adults for species identification.
