South African distribution of Erica a phylogenetic Diversity (PD) b expected PD loss c taxon richness; and d EDGE species richness. The scales follow those presented in Fig. 2 at the global level (i.e. from zero to the global maximum). In e the highest scoring Quarter Degree Squares (QDS) for taxon richness in the region are numbered following Table 3 (colour coding as per c).
