• A spatial scale assessment of habitat effects on arthropod communities of an oceanic island (2009, methodology): “As an alternative to completeness, we have calculated the sampling intensity for each site, defined as the specimens to species ratio, a crude measure of sampling effort (Cardoso et al., 2008a,b).”
• Testing the performance of beta diversity measures based on incidence data: the robustness to undersampling (2009, methodology): “…Gerês), north-western Portugal (see Cardoso et al., 2008b); a cork oak forest in the Arrábida Nature Park (hereafter Arrábida), central Portugal (see Cardoso et al., 2008a); and a scrubland in the Vale do Guadiana Nature Park (hereafter Guadiana), south-eastern Portugal (see Cardoso et al.,…”
• Standardization and optimization of arthropod inventories—the case of Iberian spiders (2009, methodology): “Guadiana had no arboreal vegetation, making some methods inappropriate: 192 samples were collected.”
• Drivers of diversity in Macaronesian spiders and the role of species extinctions (2010, background): “These are relatively low numbers when compared with almost 200 species found in a single hectare of forest on the Portuguese mainland at similar latitudes, with a prediction of over 300 species for a complete assessment during an entire year at each single-hectare location (Cardoso et al., 2008b,c).”
• Rapid biodiversity assessment of spiders (Araneae) using semi‐quantitative sampling: a case study in a Mediterranean forest (2008, background): “The inventory here presented is the second (chronologically) of three planned intensive inventories on the spider fauna of Portugal, the example of which will allow the creation of a protocol in the near future (Cardoso et al. , 2007a, b).”
