Estimation of abundance is critical to conservation biology and wildlife management, and the line transect method is widely applied for estimation of abundance because it is simple, economical, and relatively precise. Coupling line transect sampling with subsampling methods of survey research enable
The Panulirus ornatus stock in a 25000 km 2 area of Tortes Strait was estimated by making visual counts of the number of lobsters in strip transects. Pilot studies in 1988 to assess the feasibility of a full-scale survey and optimize the sampling design showed that: 4 x 500 m transects were the most
