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

Worldwide decline of the entomofauna: A review of its drivers (2019, background): “, 2010), although it is clear that other aquatic taxa are underrepresented due to insufficient knowledge (DeWalt et al., 2005).”
Long-term macroinvertebrate responses to climate change: implications for biological assessment in mediterranean-climate streams (2010, background): “Museum collections of benthic macroinvertebrates might provide a useful source of long-term information about changes in benthic macroinvertebrate communities (e.g., Resh and Unzicker 1975, Hall and Ide 1987, DeWalt et al. 2005).”
A Reassessment of the Conservation Status of Crayfishes of the United States and Canada after 10+ Years of Increased Awareness (2007, background): “Since then a steady stream of literature has highlighted the need for action and identified threats to the aquatic fauna (e.g., Allan and Flecker 1993; Richter et al. 1997; DeWalt et al. 2005).”
Taxonomic sufficiency: The influence of taxonomic resolution on freshwater bioassessments using benthic macroinvertebrates (2008, background): “2000); and they are most easily mined for other scientific uses, such as testing ecological theories (Hart 1994) and evaluating threats of extirpation or extinction to aquatic taxa (DeWalt et al. 2005).”
