The distribution and status of native and non-native crayfish are monitored across hundreds of lakes in Ontario (Canada). However, a corresponding effort has not been undertaken in flowing waters. Reliable and efficient sampling methods are essential for the detection of new aquatic invaders and tracking the spread of existing invasive species. In this study, a recent dataset for the invasive rusty crayfish (Orconectes rusticus) was used to determine whether the detection probability associated with intensive sampling by hand-capture (20 minutes) of 10 transects could be achieved with fewer transects. Results indicate that sampling more than three transects does not improve rusty crayfish detection. Monitoring designs based on three transects would reduce search effort by 140 minutes at each site; permitting greater spatial coverage or more frequent sampling.
