Projected Loss of a Salamander Diversity Hotspot as a Consequence of Projected Global Climate Change
BACKGROUND: Significant shifts in climate are considered a threat to plants and animals with significant physiological limitations and limited dispersal abilities. The southern Appalachian Mountains are a global hotspot for plethodontid salamander diversity. Plethodontids are lungless ectotherms, so...
