Comparison of imputed squamate ED and EDGE scores with fully phylogeny-derived ED and EDGE scores.

<p>(A) ED scores for all squamates, imputed from the 4,161-species phylogeny of Zheng and Wiens [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0194680#pone.0194680.ref063" target="_blank">63</a>] using our new imputation method, against the median ED scores from Tonini et al. [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0194680#pone.0194680.ref043" target="_blank">43</a>]; (B) EDGE ranks for all squamates with non-Data Deficient Red List assessments, calculated from our imputed ED scores against EDGE ranks calculated from the median ED scores from Tonini et al. [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0194680#pone.0194680.ref035" target="_blank">35</a>]. Solid black line in each plot shows modelled relationship with 95% confidence intervals in blue.</p

Relative performance of the three ED imputation methods.

<p>Proportion of reference ED captured when ED is imputed from: (A) congeners and (B) confamiliars for all phylogenies combined. Horizontal thin black line represents a line with an intercept of one (signifying 100% correspondence to original ED score), and a slope of zero (no change in proportion of reference ED predicted); the ideal performance of an imputation method. The thicker black line shows the modelled relationship between proportion of species removed and proportion of reference ED score estimated. 95% confidence intervals are presented but obscured by the regression line. Grey points represent one species from one iteration.</p
