  abstract = {{P}references elicitation can be a challenging exercise for citizens participating in assessment surveys. {I}t is even more challenging when it comes to complex and unfamiliar ecosystems and the threatened ecosystem services they provide. {M}aking people aware of the characteristics of the ecosystem services being valued is determinant for the assessment process. {W}e investigated the impact of familiarity and academic information supply on people's preferences for twenty selected ecosystem services of {F}rench {M}editerranean coastal lagoons. {T}he results show that regardless of familiarity and information supply, there is a strong consensus about the highest importance of regulation and maintenance ecosystem services as well as environmental education and research opportunity ecosystem services. {B}y contrast, nine of the cultural ecosystem services, together with two provisioning ecosystem services showed heterogeneous preferences among the different citizen groups. {U}sing a combination of descriptive and inferential statistics these eleven ecosystem services split up into three clusters characterized as (i) contemplative leisure, (ii) heritage, and (iii) consumptive activities. {F}amiliarity and academic information supply had a strong impact on the preferences for these three clusters of ecosystem services.},
