From the past to a straightforward future: Climate change threatens the protected Mexican tarantulas
Abstract
Climate change has an impact on the distribution of many species around the world, which is for the majority marks an increase in extinction. Man’s activities, especially pet trade, often have a negative effect on Tarantula spiders. Many types of Mexican Tarantula are considered at risk, such as members of Tliltocatl is complicated. Use two data containing individuals specified in anatomicically and / or genetically to be Vagans in tliltocatl (AUSSERER 1875), we develop distribution models using a maximal algorithm of thinking in the past, present, and future climate situations. Past scenes from the last period of interluagio to the period of half holocene and future scenarios regarded by the RCP 4.5 and the RCP 8.5. Our current model of distribution of T. Vagans included known as the genus distribution Tliltocatl. During the last interlaciation (lig) period, the model distribution of this genus is widespread Central and South America, before being prevented the final glaciation activity. The current distribution is more than Southern Mexican concentrated compared to the first distribution during the lig. Incoming distribution models based on increased temperature scenarios reflect an enthusiastic reduction in appropriate areas, with potential risks of extinction on the west side of their current distribution. Due to the current context of human activity in southern Mexican regions and future effects of changing Mexican Tarantulas, if there are no steps to ensure their safety to ensure their safety.
