While approaching or even reaching total completeness remains the idealgoal of any species inventory, incomplete samplings are deemed to become more often the rule, that are significantly more difficult to cope with (such as (micro-) invertebrates, for example).However, once post-operated appropriately, incomplete samplings may provide farmore data than it would seem and it is indeed possible to obtain valuable extra information froma reliable mode of extrapolation of the so-called Species Accumulation Curve.In fact, numerous tools designed for the exploitation of incomplete samplings havealready been proposed in the literature but the concern, with these numerous different tools, isprecise…
