TransektCount is one of two apps for European butterfly monitoring.
The 2nd app, TourCount, supports species-specific and individually GPS-localized counting of butterflies on any tour in nature.
Both apps use the coding scheme of Karsholt/Razowski for European butterflies and thus contain only European butterfly pictures.
