Arvind; Thanks for the references, are useful. However all methods described here are too expensive and demanding a lot of time for our goal. We need realesed in the field, thousands of bark beetles adults to monitoring the distance of flight using funnel traps (mark-release-capture) MRC.

Dear Miguel,
