Patterns of Biodiversity
Conservation planning for biodiversity is often hindered by
lack of data. Protection of suitable indicator taxa is a
popular way to deal with this problem: planning is focused

research courses ...
Surrogate Species Planning (2003)
Regional Biodiversity Priorities (2004)
Examining Biodiveristy Patters (2005)
