摘要:

旗舰物种范式是借助代表性物种的公共影响力实现生物多样性保护的一种策略。尽管这一策略在国际上已成为提升公众环保意识和筹措保护资金的重要手段, 但国内学界关注度不够, 限制了其发展。因此, 有必要对国际研究进行梳理, 启发国内采取相关策略。本文利用潜在迪利克雷分布(latent Dirichlet allocation, LDA)的主题模型, 选取英文学术期刊上发表的旗舰物种范式相关文献, 聚合为旗舰物种范式的理论研究、旗舰物种项目的案例研究、问卷访谈揭示的公众态度及其影响因素、旗舰物种范式的场景落地问题、旗舰物种范式的负面效应和旗舰物种范式的优化策略等6个主题并进行综述。综述发现: (1)旗舰物种范式存在动物福利问题、天花板效应、“诺亚方舟”问题与未经本土化的保护主义4个负面效应; (2)对应上述问题存在本土化、降干扰、去偏见与跨界传播4个发展方向; (3)旗舰物种范式存在围绕旗舰物种定义与本质属性的冲突。本文进一步讨论了旗舰物种的定义、遴选及其局限性的争论3个重大问题, 提出了明确范式的实现形式、多主体协同参与、优化旗舰物种遴选与项目安排、加强本土创新与国际合作等建议。

Abstract

Background: The flagship species paradigm is a strategic approach to biodiversity conservation that leverages public influence through representative species. Despite its effectiveness in raising public awareness and funds for conservation, this approach has not yet received significant academic attention in China, stalling its theoretical and practical development. To address this gap, we propose a comprehensive review of relevant studies and offer suggestions to stimulate further research in China.

Method: This paper conducted a review of English literature relevant to the flagship species paradigm published in academic journals from 2013 to 2023 using the latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) thematic model.The method involved the following steps: (1) retrieving articles from the Web of Science with keywords such as flagship species and charismatic species; (2) employing coherence score and perplexity score indicators following unsupervised learning in Python. (3) identifying the major themes and labeling core words; (4) manually examining articles under each theme, summarizing current research progress.

Results: This paper identified six themes, including studies on the theories of the flagship species paradigms, case studies on the flagship species program, public attitudes and influencing factors elucidate through questionnaires and interviews, implementation of the paradigm within local context, the negative impacts of adopting flagship species paradigm, and the optimization of the approach. Based on reviewing these six themes, several findings were noticed: (1) conflicts do exist on the definition and determination of the flagship species; (2) adopting flagship species programs may encounter four problems, i.e. negative impacts on animal welfare, the ceiling effect, the “Noah’s Ark” problem, and protectionism due to failure to engage local context; (3) localization, reduction of interruption, elimination of bias, and cross-border dissemination are the four research directions identified to address the identified problems.

Suggestion: This article provides suggestions based on further discussion of three key issues, i.e., the definition of the flagship species, the selection criteria for flagship species, and the restriction of the flagship species paradigm. More research should be conducted on the realization of the paradigm, coordination and participation of various stakeholders, optimization of selection criteria of flagship species and planning, and improvement of localization and international cooperation.
