Editor's Note: Figures belonging to the following captions were not available at time of publishing.

Figure 1. Delineating the survey area.

Figure 2. Belt transects for upland habitats. Survey transect lines (A-D) run along the slope contour. Line A depicts a single transect line. Line B illustrates the 10m wide belt transect that is searched, 5m on each side of the line. Line C shows the zig zag fashion of a survey path.

Figure 3. Stream morphology. Top: Starting upslope, streams begin as hollows, or unchanneled colluvial valleys and become source and transport reaches, the primary domain of stream and streambank salamander species. Bottom: Cross-section of stream. PLVA and other streambank species typically inhabitat the stream bank and overflow in colluvial (or alluvial, farther downstream) deposits.

Figure 4. Grouped belt-transects for streamside species. Top: Spacing of groups of belt-transects along a stream in a project area. Bottom: The relationship of belt-transects to one another, and a group to a subsequent group.

Figure 5. Timed survey areas, as done in a steep valley stream situation. Start at segment 1, then proceed sequentially to the three others, in 2 person-hour blocks. After segment 4, spend 1 person-hour searching missed spots that look promising (like the side channel).
