Extant distribution and future suitability projections for Salamandrina spp. in Italy. (a) Presence data of Salamandrina spp. used in this analysis defining the current range of the species; (b) Ecological Niche Modelling for Salamandrina in Italy using extant bioclimatic variables. (c,d) Future projections using the bioclimatic variables for 2070: c, RCP 2.6, very stringent pathway (1 °C mean global warming increase during 2046–2065); d, RCP 8.5, very relaxed pathway (2 °C mean global warming increase during 2046–2065). Progressively darker green indicates higher climatic suitability for Salamandrina in a scale between 0 and 1000.
