“…Carroll et al (1996) and Restani and Marzluff (2001) argue that the risk of extinction in the absence of intervention should drive spending decisions. FWS assigns listed T&E species priority ranks based on degree of threat, recovery potential, genetic distinctiveness, and conflict with construction, development, or other economic activity (Simon et al 1995).…”

“…The public also believes that rarity of a species and its ecological importance should direct conservation (Czech et al 1998). Despite this agreement, many people-scientists, government officials, the public-question the effectiveness of the endangered species program (Rohlf 1991, Tear et al 1995, Carroll et al 1996, Easter-Pilcher 1996, Foin et al 1998, Restani and Marzluff 2001, in part because approximately 1 percent of listed species receive almost 50 percent of available recovery funds each year (Simon et al 1995, USDOI 1992, 1994. In 1988, the US General Accounting Office (GAO) formally criticized the FWS for not following its own priority system (USGAO 1988).…”

“…Las distintas perspectivas con que se ha interpretado el concepto de rareza en diferentes estudios y con múlti-ples objetivos, han dificultado la adopción de criterios no subjetivos y normalizados para la delimitación de las plantas raras (Carroll et al, 1996;Blackburn & Gaston, 1997;Keith, 1998). Aunque la presencia de especies, medida por el número de celdas ocupadas en un área de estudio ("species occupancy"), se ha usado con más frecuencia y se considera un buen indicador de la abundancia (He & Condit, 2007), hay que señalar las limitaciones y sesgos irremediables que pueden derivarse de la escasez e imprecisión de los datos disponibles (Batianoff & Burgess, 1993;Domínguez et al, 2003).…”
