Collecting sites
This project has been conducted in 5 Conservation Areas: Osa,
Amistad Caribe, Amistad Pacífico, Tempisque y Arenal-Tilarán.
Different stations from each Conservation Area, which are managed
by the Ministry of Environment and Energy, are visited at least
twice at year; one during the dry season and the other during
the rainy season. During these visits, it is intended to collect
along the roads and trails, and in private lands after obtaining
previous permits from the owners.
