Abstract The Chinese giant salamander, Andrias davidianus, the world's largest amphibian,
is critically endangered and has an extremely unique evolutionary history. Therefore, this …

Being the largest extant amphibian in the world, the IUCN Critically Endangered Chinese
giant salamander Andrias davidianus is a charismatic species with great international public …

Populations see their range fluctuate in relation to environmental variations, including
climate change, and their survival is linked to the maintenance of large enough populations …

Simple Summary Biodiversity conservation under global climate change is a global
challenge. Many wildlife species are altering their distributions to adapt to the changes in …

Climate change will cause important declines in environmental suitability, especially when
living at high elevations. The critically endangered Salamandra lanzai from the Alps may be …

Many studies predict that climate change will cause species movement and turnover, but few
have considered the effect of climate change on range fragmentation for current species …

In China, as elsewhere, amphibians are highly endangered. Anthropogenic environmental
change has affected the distribution and population dynamics of species, and species …

Climate change is one of the major threats to global amphibian diversity, and consequently,
the species distribution is expected to shift considerably in the future. Therefore, predicting …

The niche divergence and potential climate change-induced loss of evolutionarily significant
units (ESUs) of flagship amphibian species in China, the Chinese giant salamander clade …

Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 1125–1133 Abstract Forecasts of species endangerment under
climate change usually ignore the processes by which species ranges shift. By analysing the …
