Main Conclusions Extinction risk increases with range loss, but this relationship is strongly modulated by absolute range and varies across taxa. For a given absolute range, the effect of range loss on extinction risk largely disappears, suggesting greater vulnerability in small-ranged taxa (and v.v.). However, model comparison indicated that extinction risk is best explained when […]Main Conclusions Extinction risk increases with range loss, but this relationship is strongly modulated by absolute range and varies across taxa.
