This article has been rated as Mid-importance on the
importance scale.
I've de-prodded this because a bit of searching using Google Scholar strongly suggests that it's a notable concept/statistic within the field of ecology; see
[1]. However, most of the sources that Google Scholar are academic journals that I can't access from home, so I won't actually be able to verify all of the information in the article for a day or two.

Shouldn't the phrase be "it is not a metric", rather than "it is not a distance". It is a distance as it generally has a higher number when things are more dissimilar. However, it is not a metric because it doesn't satisfy the triangle equality... âPreceding
