Table S1. Causes of global extinction for 20 species whose declines were possibly linked
to climate change (data from IUCN). * = species that are not globally extinct but are
extinct in the wild. Note that in almost all cases, the links between extinction and climate
change are highly speculative and obscured by other factors. The possible links between
chytrid fungus and climate change in amphibians are discussed in the text, and here we
merely say “chytrid” for brevity.
