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

From communities to continents: beta diversity of herbivorous insects (2005, methodology): “Condit et al. (2002) used the probability P(r) that two randomly selected individuals separated by distance r were conspecific.”
Host Specificity, Alpha- and Beta-Diversity of Phytophagous Beetles in Two Tropical Forests in Panama (2004, unknown): “Ecological estimates of regional species diversity are almost entirely based on studies reporting insect species diversity from single tropical sites (e.g., Erwin 1982; Basset et al. 1996; Ødegaard 2000a; Novotny et al. 2002a).”
Conservation and biological monitoring of tropical forests: the role of parataxonomists (2004, background): “…Balkwill & PhiUipson 1996; Takeuchi & Golman 2001 ), fungi (Bills & Polishook 1994), terrestrial arthropods (Janzen 1988; Longino & Colwell 1997; Novotny et al. 2002a, 2002b) and benthic macroinvertebrates (Fore, Paulsen & O'Laughlin 2001), it would be equally applicable to the study of many…”
