Fig. 5

Modelled distributions of both Lissotriton species for Last Glacial Maximum, Middle

Holocene and current scenarios. Left side: maps of the predicted suitability for Lissotriton vulgaris meridionalis and L. italicus resulting from the cross-validated BRT models built on the current bioclimatic conditions (last row) and then projected to the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and Middle Holocene (MOL) scenarios. Right side: maps showing the values of BIO7, BIO17 and BIO19 within the three temporal scenarios considered; in the maps for the LGM and the MOL scenarios, the values of each variable within the CCSM4 and the MIROC-ESM paleoclimatic reconstructions were averaged.
