Summary

Description

Labeled, waterproof shipping tags were placed inside and attached to the outside of each 1-mm mesh sample bag. Samples were stored in 3 or 5 gallon buckets containing 10 percent formalin. Ten percent formalin was made by mixing one part full-strength formaldehyde with nine parts water. If animals were too large to fit into the sample bag, the specimen was identified to the lowest taxon, measured, data recorded, and released.
