• Dead wood threshold values for the three-toed woodpecker presence in boreal and sub-alpine forest (2004, background): “The usefulness of keystone species (Paine, 1966) and umbrella species (Fleishman et al., 2000; Fleishman et al., 2001 ) for biodiversity conservation is gaining increasing acceptance among ecologists and conservation biologists (Simberloff, 1999; Roberge and Angelstam, in”

• Habitat quality and biodiversity indicator performances of a threatened butterfly versus a multispecies group for wet heathlands in Belgium (2005, methodology): “Other authors have proposed statistical ways to select indicator species (e.g., the umbrella index; Fleishman et al., 2000) but this index is only applicable within taxonomic groups and cannot be used to determine umbrella species from a taxonomically diverse dataset ( Fleishman et al., 2001 ).”
• A Species‐Specific Approach to Modeling Biological Communities and Its Potential for Conservation (2003, background): “Similarly, the indicator and umbrella species concepts for conserving entire communities continue to receive criticism both theoretically (Niemi et al. 1997; Simberloff 1997; Caro & O’Doherty 1999 ) and empirically ( Chase et al. 2000; Fleishman et al. 2001).”
• Does size matter for dispersal distance (2007, background): “Distance–mass relationships are implicitly part of the umbrella species approach (e.g. Simberloff, 1998; Fleishman et al., 2001; Roberge & Angelstam, 2004) because ‘charismatic megafauna’ are often identified as umbrella species, due in part to their large range sizes.”
