Insect collecting Insect collecting has left traces in European cultural history, literature and songs (e.g., Georges Brassens's "La chasse aux papillons" ("The Hunt for Butterflies")). The practice is still widespread in many countries, and is particularly common among Japanese youths. Insects are passively caught using funnels, pitfall traps, bottle traps, malaise traps, flight interception traps and other passive types of insect traps, some of which are baited with small bits of sweet foods (such as honey). Different designs of ultraviolet light traps such as the Robinson trap are also used by entomologists for collecting nocturnal insects (especially moths) during faunistic survey studies.
Syntonic comma just 6:5. This result was obtained by narrowing each fifth by a quarter of a syntonic comma, an amount which was considered negligible, and permitted the full development of music with complex texture, such as polyphonic music, or melody with instrumental accompaniment. Since then, other tuning systems were developed, and the syntonic comma was used as a reference value to temper the perfect fifths in an entire family of them. Namely, in the family belonging to the syntonic temperament continuum, including meantone temperaments. The syntonic comma arises in "comma pump" (comma drift) sequences such as C G D A E
