Factoring species, non-species values and threats into biodiversity prioritisation across the ecoregions of Africa and its islands (2006, background): “…have attempted to integrate costs into the process of conservation prioritisation, showing that this approach makes a different to the set of conservation areas chosen, especially if the ability to invest in conservation is determined by available funds (Balmford et al., 2000; Moore et al., 2004).”
Capturing biodiversity: selecting priority areas for conservation using different criteria (2005, background): “6% of the database species in occurrence locations, which is a very high recovery rate, especially in comparison to other real-world case studies using species-surrogates for the representation of other taxa (e.g., Lombard 1995; Moore et al. 2003).”
Conservation of Freshwater Biodiversity: a Comparison of Different Area Selection Methods (2005, background): “As some authors point out (e.g. Moore et al. 2003) complete and efficient representation, especially of narrow-range species, will not be achieved through indicator groups alone.”

Are Water Beetles Good Indicators of Biodiversity in Mediterranean Aquatic Ecosystems? The Case of the Segura River Basin (SE Spain) (2006, background): “The maintenance of biodiversity has become one of the principal goals of conservation, so that it is necessary to identify particularly valuable areas for conservation on which to focus more detailed effort (Margules and Pressey 2000; Myers et al. 2000; Moore et al. 2003).”
Vertical and Temporal Patterns of Biodiversity of Fruit-Feeding Butterflies in a Tropical Forest in Uganda (2004, background): “However, patterns of congruence and complementarity vary between biogeographical regions (Pearson and Carroll 1999; Cleary 2002), habitats (Ricketts et al. 2002) and conservation status ( Moore et al. 2003 ).”
