Irradiance from the new LED lamp (in colour), compared with other lamps. a. Compared with irradiation from a 190 W high-pressure mercury vapour (MV) bulb with tungsten filament (black line), and a 200 W incandescent lamp with tungsten filament (dashed black line). b. Irradiance from the new LED lamp (in colour), as compared to irradiance from various commonly used lamps used for insect collecting. CC blue: Blue cold cathode; CC green: Green cold cathode; CC UV: ultraviolet cold cathode; tube 350: low pressure actinic mercury vapour tube with 350 nm emission peak; tube 350 BL: low pressure mercury vapour blacklight tube with 350 nm emission peak; tube 368: low pressure mercury vapour tube with 368 nm emission peak. GemLight: GemLight UV LED at 0°. LED Infusino et al.: 400 nm LED stripe applied by Infusino et al. (2017).
