Distribution of adult Deinacrida rugosa presence as evidenced by combining detection with tracking tunnels baited with peanut butter and finding them by searching at night. Searches extended 15 m from each tracking tunnel. Results are presence-absence derived from three searches over three nights in 2008, and four searches over four nights in both 2013 and 2015. Areas searched (tracking tunnel transects) are indicated as white lines. 2008 data from Watts et al. (2009, 2011).
