Table 1. Summary of measures.

Note that all measures prioritise evolutionary distinctiveness (‘ED’ above), and that all components are scaled such that their means are zero and standard deviations one unless stated. As discussed in the text, in the EDAM framework EDGE values could be called EDM RL, although EDGE components are not scaled.

Measure Formula Prioritises
EDGE (EDM RL) unscaled ln(ED) + Red List Global threat
EDM ln(ED) + range change British threat
EDAM ln(ED) + range change + precision of decrease Range change and low precision of decrease
EDAM ln(ED) + reversed range change + precision of increase Range change and low precision of increase
ED(AM)max ln(ED) + max(range change, precision) Greatest value of threat and accuracy of prediction
