Taxonomic sufficiency: The influence of taxonomic resolution on freshwater bioassessments using benthic macroinvertebrates (2008, background): “…practitioners, consulting expert taxonomists, conducting data-quality audits, and curating voucher specimens — are well known (e.g., Resh and McElravy 1993; Bauernfeind and Moog 2000; Carter and Resh 2001; Cao et al. 2003; Metzeling et al. 2003; Ranasinghe et al. 2003; Haase et al. 2006).”
Effective monitoring of freshwater fish (2019, background): “Similarly, Haase et al. (2006, 2010) identified considerable errors in species sorting and identification of stream macro-invertebrates among European laboratories.”
Data quality, performance, and uncertainty in taxonomic identification for biological assessments (2008, background): “Their initial evaluations showed that the occurrence of errors was considerable but substantial reductions in error rates were associated with subsequent QC testing (Haase et al. 2006).”
