• Rapid biodiversity assessment of spiders (Araneae) using semi‐quantitative sampling: a case study in a Mediterranean forest (2008, methodology): “Although shortcuts for the rapid assessment of spider richness in the Mediterranean have already been proposed by using higher taxa surrogates (Cardoso et al ., 2004a) or indicator taxa (Cardoso et al ., 2004b), no standardised and optimised field protocol has been proposed for the habitats in the…”
• Assessing spider species richness and composition in Mediterranean cork oak forests (2008, background): “…assessment of spider richness in the Mediterranean have already been proposed by using higher taxa surrogates (Cardoso et al., 2004a) or indicator taxa (Cardoso et al., 2004b), but no field protocol has been proposed for the habitats in the region (but see Jiménez-Valverde and Lobo, 2005, 2006).”
• Performance of Macrolichens and Lichen Genera as Indicators of Lichen Species Richness and Composition (2005, background): “This has also been reported to be a problem in other taxa that are rather poorly known and hard to determine (e.g., spiders, Cardoso et al. 2004).”
