BALSAM LAKE PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Balsam Lake Provincial Park in 2014 (44.62857, -78.8614, 274m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from April 30 – September 22, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 3122 BINs were obtained. Over half the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and true bugs (Hemiptera; Figure 2). In total, 703 arthropod species were named, representing 24.3% of the BINs from the Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Balsam Lake site (Appendix 1). All the BINs were assigned at least Provincial Park in 2014. to family, and 58.9% were assigned to a genus (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Balsam Lake represent 224 different families and 811 genera.
