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

A macroecological perspective of trait patterns in stream communities (2013, background): “Although congruence in taxonomic community patterns has been found to be weak among different taxonomic groups (reviewed by Heino, 2010), trait composition may vary more similarly among taxonomic groups across ecological gradients.”
How far can we go in simplifying biomonitoring assessments? An integrated analysis of taxonomic surrogacy, taxonomic sufficiency and numerical resolution in a megadiverse region (2012, methodology): “Mantel tests are also commonly used in studies of community congruence (see Table 2 of Heino, 2010).”
Important Plant Areas: revised selection criteria for a global approach to plant conservation (2017, background): “2004), wider cross-taxon congruence can vary tremendously (e.g., Lund and Rahbek 2002; Kati et al. 2004; Heino 2010; Sabatini et al. 2016) and evidence suggests that the congruence between important”
