The potential of parasitoid Hymenoptera as bioindicators of arthropod diversity in agricultural grasslands (2011, background): “need to find appropriate bioindicators or surrogate taxa that can be monitored on the basis of their being representative of wider biodiversity and ⁄or used for conservation planning (Duelli & Obrist 2003a; Favreau et al. 2006; Lewandowski, Noss & Parsons 2010).”
The white-backed woodpecker: umbrella species for forest conservation planning? (2008, background): “However, they also present limitations (Favreau et al. 2006).”
GIS-models work well, but are not enough: Habitat preferences of Lanius collurio at multiple levels and conservation implications (2009, background): “…for conservation planning, which could not be achieved through detailed surveys at regional scale (which are too costly in terms of time and economical effort and the limited timeframe within which unsuitable habitat changes happen does not allow time-consuming analyses) (see Favreau et al., 2006).”
Using subsets of species in biodiversity surveys (2007, background): “In the absence of sufficient resources to survey a particular group of species comprehensively, surrogates of species diversity are often used to set conservation priorities (Caro & O’Doherty 1999; Tognelli 2005; Favreau et al . 2006; Pawar et al . 2007).”
The ecological significance of giant clams in coral reef ecosystems (2015, background): “…charismatic invertebrate megafauna (for instance, fourteen cultured T. gigas are used in snorkel trails at Magnetic Island; Braley, pers. comm., 2014), they have the potential to play a flagship role (sensu Walpole and Leader-Williams, 2002, but see Favreau et al., 2006) in reef conservation.”
Biodiversity soup: metabarcoding of arthropods for rapid biodiversity assessment and biomonitoring (2012, background): “Instead, most biodiversity research remains in the realm of basic science, and even then, scientists typically are forced to rely on proxies (Favreau et al. 2006; Lewandowski, Noss, & Parsons 2010).”
“Primeval forest relict beetles” of Central Europe: a set of 168 umbrella species for the protection of primeval forest remnants (2018, background): “With their rather small size, beetles might not exactly meet the commonly expected criteria of typical flagship species, such as charismatic, large mammals or birds (Favreau et al. 2006).”
Selection criteria for flagship species by conservation organizations (2009, background): “Applications with the most efficient results originate from a combination of concepts (see Favreau et al. 2006).”
