This paper examines aspects of the relationship between (1) the recently typified form of biodiversity crime, (2) information made available to the public through the Internet, and (3) cultural dynamics quantified through info-surveillance methods through Culturomics techniques. We propose two conceptual models: (1) the building-up process of a biodiversity crime in some language, and (2) a multi-stage biodiversity conservation chain and biodiversity-crime activities relating to each stage. We use crowd search volumes on the Internet on biodiversity crime-related terms and topics as proxies for measuring public interest. The main findings are: (1) the concept of biodiversity-crime per se is still immature and presents low penetration to the general public; (2) biodiversity-crime issues, not recognized as such, are amalgamated in conservation-oriented websites and pages; and (3) differences in perceptions and priorities between general vs. niche public with particular interest(s) in environmental issues- are discernable.
（1）最近被典型化的生物多样性犯罪形式；（2）通过互联网向公众提供的信息；（3）通过文化组学技术的信息监测方法量化的文化动态。我们提出了两个概念模型：（1）某种语言中生物多样性犯罪的形成过程；（2）一个多阶段的生物多样性保护链以及与每个阶段相关的生物多样性犯罪活动。我们将互联网上与生物多样性犯罪相关的术语和主题的人群搜索量用作衡量公众兴趣的指标。主要发现如下：（1）生物多样性犯罪本身的概念仍不成熟，对普通公众的渗透率较低；（2）未被视为生物多样性犯罪问题的内容，被合并在以保护为导向的网站和页面中；（3）在对环境问题特别感兴趣的普通公众与特定小众公众之间，在认知和优先事项上存在差异。
