PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an insect trap allowing a trapped state of insects attached to an adhesive sheet 51 to be recognized by an image-taking means 6, enabling the insect-trapping information having high analytic accuracy to be obtained by enabling the picture of the surface of the adhesive sheet 51 to be taken by a prescribed area span while moving in the longitudinal direction, and enabling the whole device to be made compact.SOLUTION: The insect trap is constituted as follows. An insect-attracting light 4 is arranged in the depth direction of an opening part 331 through which the insects come in and out, and a prescribed insect-trapping space for trapping the insects is formed therebetween. The adhesive sheet 51 is arranged at the lower side of the insect-trapping space, and the image-taking means 6 for taking the image of the insects attached to the adhesive sheet 51 by facing thereto is arranged at the upper side and constituted so as to be able to move reciprocatingly along the longitudinal direction of the sheet surface.COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT【課題】粘着性シート51に付着した虫の捕獲状況を撮像手段6によって把握するものでありながら、粘着性シート51面を、その長さ方向に移動しながら所定の面域スパン毎に撮影することができ、解析精度の高い捕虫情報の取得が可能となり、しかも、装置全体をコンパクトに製作することを可能とする。【解決手段】虫が出入りする開口部331の奥行き方向に誘虫灯4を配設させ、その間に虫を捕獲するための所定の捕虫空間を形成させる。この捕虫空間の下側に粘着性シート51を配設させ、上側に対向して粘着性シート51に付着した虫を撮像する撮像手段6を配設すると共に、シート面の長さ方向に沿って往復移動可能に構成する。【選択図】図3
