Russian term or phrase: знаковый вид
Отрывок из текста: "В качестве знакового вида был выбран журавль-красавка, поскольку эта птица не только обладает внешней притягательностью, но и также занимает особое место в культуре различных народов".
Помогите, пожалуйста.

Notes to answerer
Asker: нет-нет, видимо, я плохо объяснила... Здесь имелась ввиду не логотип или эмблема. Тут другое: именно на охрану данного вида журавля направлен проект. То есть для проекта это знаковая птица
