Mobile acoustic transects miss rare bat species: implications of survey method and spatio-temporal sampling for monitoring bats

Due to increasing threats facing bats, long-term monitoring protocols are needed to inform conservation strategies. Effective monitoring should be easily repeatable while capturing spatio-temporal variation. Mobile acoustic driving transect surveys (‘mobile transects’) have been touted as a robust,...
