Abstract
  • Population counts of aquatic insects can be a credible indicator of the overall health of a waterway. Stonefly (Plecoptera) larva are very sensitive to chemicals present within the waterway, however obtaining population counts of the larvae can be very labor intensive and thus costly. The BugID project has been working to create an automated system to classify the different species of stonefly larva. The current imaging devices require extensive time from a lab technician to individually place stonefly larva into the device. This paper describes the development of a singulation device which would individually remove stonefly larva from a field sample and place them into the imaging device, resulting in a possible solution to help automate the identification process of the larva.
