Hello All, I operate a citizen science program and am working with a network of collaborators on a publication examining the accuracy of insect data collected by volunteers. We are evaluating the issue of “conservation bias” where people mis-identify common taxa as rare species creating errors. I am really interested in any articles where others have found this type of bias for over reporting rare taxa or articles where this issue is discussed. I have found a some through my research but if anyone knows of articles of this nature which I could review in my paper I would greatly appreciate the references.
Thanks much, Mary Gardiner
