    The point at which rare species cease to be sampled has been termed Preston's veil line. As the sample size increases Preston's veil is pushed farther to the left and more of the normal curve becomes visible [2] [10] (Figure 6). Williams' moth data, originally used by Fisher to develop the logseries distribution, became increasingly lognormal ...
