The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

The seven impediments in invertebrate conservation and how to overcome them (2011, methodology): “Especially in the tropics, parataxonomists with training that allows them to recognize and sort morphospecies are often used with success (Basset et al., 2004; Janzen, 2004; Pearson et al., 2011).”

DNA barcoding: how it complements taxonomy, molecular phylogenetics and population genetics. (2007, background): “This project, which was started over 25 years ago by Janzen, Hallwachs and colleagues [9,30,31], has, over the past three years, employed barcoding to create a reference sequence library for more than 25 000 specimens representing > 2000 species of moths and butterﬂies and their parasitoids [7–9 ,…”
Improving and integrating data on invasive species collected by citizen scientists (2010, background): “Studies show that many skills needed to do scientific research can be obtained by novices when properly trained (Mumby et al. 1995; Darwall and Dulvy 1996; Bailenson et al. 2002; Barrett et al. 2002; Brandon et al. 2003; Janzen 2004;”
Conservation and biological monitoring of tropical forests: the role of parataxonomists (2004, background): “It first appeared in print in 1991, and was formally defined later (Janzen 1991, 2004; Janzen et al. 1993).”
