Extended Data Fig. 1: Habitats used by threatened freshwater species (decapod crustaceans, fishes, and odonates; combined) and threatened tetrapods.

From: One-quarter of freshwater fauna threatened with extinction

Extended Data Fig. 1

Threatened species include those assessed as Critically Endangered, Endangered, or Vulnerable (including those flagged as Possibly Extinct and Possibly Extinct in the Wild). Habitats are not mutually exclusive. Habitats are coded following the IUCN Habitats Classification Scheme (version 3.1) and combined for presentation as follows (value of highest hierarchical level is indicated, all subsequent levels are included): wetlands (5); forest (1); artificial (combined) (14, 15); marine (combined) (9, 10, 11, 12, 13); shrubland (3); grassland (4); rocky areas (6); savanna (2); caves & subterranean (7); and desert (8). The following habitats are not shown: introduced vegetation (16); other (17); and unknown (18). Number of species: threatened freshwater species n = 4,236; and threatened tetrapods n = 7,108.
