1、Designation:D 4407 84(Reapproved 2002)Standard Practice forCollecting Benthic Macroinvertebrates With Orange PeelGrab Sampler1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4407;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,

2、the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon(e)indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This practice covers the procedures for obtaining quali-tative bottom samples of macroinvertebrates inhabiting

3、 sand,cobble,rubble stone,and similar substrates.1.2 The sampler should not be used in critical quantitativework that is to be compared with results of other areas and isrecommended as a reconnaisance sampler only.1.3 This device is used primarily in marine waters and deeplakes.1.4 For the advantage
