For 2 references, how would I produce textual citations such that
Statement (species A: author1 date1; species B: ref2)
I tried \citep[species A:][]{ref1}[species B:][]{ref2}
, but it doesn't seem to work..

You are looking for a multi-cite version of \citep
. That does not really exist, but since biblatex
's natbib
commands are just wrappers around their standard counterparts, \citep
is really \parencite
(exceptions apply for the starred versions: \citep*
is not \parencite*
, it is \AtNextCite{\defcounter{maxnames}{999}\parencite
). The multi-cite version for \parencite
is \parencites
, so you want
\parencites[species A:][]{ref1}[species B:][]{ref2}
\parencites{cite1, cite2}[see][for review]{cite3}
produced weird ([cite 1, cite2]; [see cite3 for review])

\parencites[species A:][]{ref1}[species B:][]{ref2}
(notice thes
). Thenatbib
compatibility commands are just wrappers around theirbiblatex
counterparts (so\citep
is actually a\parencite
; there are exceptions for the starred versions) and do not have multi-cite support (as indeednatbib
does not). – moewe Apr 29 '14 at 6:36
