This dataset was gathered as part of a Scottish Natural Heritage contract in 2013/14. It provides the results of invertebrate surveys designed to inform Site Condition Monitoring at Dollar Glen SSSI. These surveys targeted the notified beetle (Stenus glacialis) feature, but other invertebrate taxa were also recorded.Sampling Description
Quality Control
We have a very high level of confidence in this dataset. Where necessary, rare specimens were compared against reference collections, those held in the National Museums Scotland collection and identities confirmed with experts.Method steps
- Surveys targeted the beetle (Stenush glacialis) feature of Dollar Glen SSSI. However, other taxa were also recorded. Two transects, each including five pitfall traps were set on 29 July 2013 on King’s Seat Hill, south of the Burn of Sorrow, which provides suitable habitat for the target species, Stenus glacialis. Traps were collected on 12 August 2013.
