The lognormal distribution is widely applied in many fields such as economics, finance, management. A method for detection of the outliers from the lognormal sample is discussed. The new test statistics based on the superior estimators for the population parameters are given. The test statistics can resist contamination from the outliers, the approximate distribution of the test statistics is proposed in this article.
