...…to properly estimate the niche breadth of intraspecific variants, especially if the intraspecific variants are differently prevalent, and may therefore result in future projections that overestimate suitability distribution losses (e.g., Thomas et al. 2004; Thuiller et al. 2008; Urban et al. 2012)....

...The interaction of habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate extremes will increase pressure on some populations and species, particularly in isolated trailing-edge populations where dispersal ability is limited (Travis 2003; Thomas et al. 2004)....
