  abstract = {{A}n improved version of the quatrefoil light trap was tested in a tributary of the {S}innamary river, {F}rench {G}uiana, {S}outh {A}merica, at the beginning of the rainy season. {T}he entire trap was simplified to lower the cost and increase the reliability of the entire system in harsh field work conditions. {T}he major improvement was an inexpensive electronic light-switch that automatically lighted the lamp at dusk and turned it off at down allowing deployment of numerous traps over large distances. {M}ost of the 648 individuals caught in the 76 samples were {C}haraciformes larvae, juveniles, and small adults. {S}ome {C}lupeiformes, {S}iluriformes, {C}yprinodontiformes, {S}yngnathiformes and {P}erciformes were also caught but no {G}ymnotiformes were represented in the samples. {L}ight traps appear useful to sample in their microhabitat neotropical young and small fishes of several taxonomic group.
