This spotlight survey data package comprises transect-based arboreal marsupial counts using spotlighting surveys which is undertaken for a duration of 20 minutes along each 100 metre transect. The abundance of species observed or heard is recorded, and counts are not undertaken in poor weather (rain, fog or high wind). Opportunistic records of the presence of nocturnal bird and frog species are also recorded. Spotlight surveys commenced in 2002 and have been conducted annually until 2007 and biennially thereafter. The Jervis Bay Plot Network was established in 2002 in Booderee National Park in Jervis Bay Territory, South-eastern Australia. The study location is a floristically diverse area in which fire history has been well-documented over several decades. The plot network’s objectives involve quantifying the inter-relationships between natural disturbance and/or management intervention (including weed and feral animal control and prescribed burning) and the reciprocal changes in vegetation condition and biodiversity response. The Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network study forms part of the collection of data packages by this plot network. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park.
