Rare, very rare and other classification...

[ricardo]

Fear colleagues

I would like to know why taxonomists stop using classification for abundance
like rare, common etc.

Was it some threat from government and comapanies who wouldn't like to have
rare insects on meadow which has to be converted to factory or construction
site?

Keep care and be of good cheer.
