摘要
An empirical linear relationship between log [-log(PT)] and log (m) has been shown to exist for samples from a wide variety of arthropod species; m is the mean and PT is defined as the probability of getting no more than a predetermined number (T) of individuals in a sample unit. Previously presented expressions for the variance of the predicted values of m have often been omitted terms that should be present. One of these terms is shown to be relatively large in relation to the whole. The operating characteristic curves for decision making (eg to spray with pesticide or not) based on the relationship are sensitive to such a term. Ways of minimizing its effect are described: choosing T so that the linear fit is best and choosing higher values of T. -from Authors
