Abstract
⺠Market-based instruments (MBIs) are prominent in discourses and practice for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services' provision. ⺠MBIs are a heterogeneous group of policy instruments with very few shared characteristics and questionable links to markets. ⺠For the sake of clarification and better use as policy instruments, a lexicon is proposed that includes six categories. ⺠The term “Payments for Ecosystem Services” faces various interpretations that fit in all but one categories of the lexicon.
