  2. Decline in amphibian populations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_amphibian...

    Habitat loss, disease and climate change are thought to be responsible for the drastic decline in populations in recent years. [ 12 ] Declines have been particularly intense in the western United States , Central America , South America , eastern Australia and Fiji (although cases of amphibian extinctions have appeared worldwide).

  3. Extinction risk from climate change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_risk_from...

    Climate change also increases both the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, [7] which can directly wipe out regional populations of species. [8] Those species occupying coastal and low-lying island habitats can also become extinct by sea level rise. This has already happened with Bramble Cay melomys in Australia. [9]

  4. List of critically endangered amphibians - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_critically...

    No subpopulations of amphibians have been evaluated by the IUCN. Additionally, 1193 amphibian species (16.4% of those evaluated) are listed as data deficient , meaning there is insufficient information for a full assessment of conservation status.

  6. Salamander - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamander

    Specific reasons for the decline may include climate change, chytridiomycosis, or volcanic activity, but the main threat is habitat destruction as logging, agricultural activities, and human settlement reduce their often tiny, fragmented ranges. Survey work is being undertaken to assess the status of these salamanders, and to better understand ...

  7. Shenandoah salamander - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shenandoah_Salamander

    Like most woodland salamanders, the Shenandoah salamander eats mites, flies, small beetles, springtails, and other soil invertebrates. [9] No direct observation of predation of the Shenandoah salamander has ever been reported, but potential predators residing within the habitat of the Shenandoah salamander include ring-necked snakes, short-tailed shrews, brown thrashers, and towhees. [10]

  8. Alpine salamander - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpine_salamander

    Alpine salamanders are not resilient to habitat changes— few terrestrial salamanders are— so risks of climate change altering their living spaces is severe. [23] Although alpine salamanders are listed as Least Concern on IUCN Red List, their numbers are decreasing. [1] Additionally, some subspecies of S. atra are in greater danger. [25]

  9. Effects of climate change on biomes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change...

    Furthermore, climate change may disrupt the ecology among interacting species, via changes on behaviour and phenology, or via climate niche mismatch. [9] The disruption of species-species associations is a potential consequence of climate-driven movements of each individual species in opposite directions.
