Can subsets of species indicate overall patterns in biodiversity?
Abstract Resource limitations often allow only a subset of species to be counted. But using subsets may bias inferences on spatial or temporal trends in biodiversity. Using data from a video survey on reefs in the Gulf of Mexico for which all fish species observed were counted (243 species), we inve...
