Models
The proportion of variance explained was generally high for all models
(16-83% - Table 2) and was overall greater for angiosperms than
centipedes. Biogeographical affinity explained a large proportion of
variance for all endemic categories (13-67% - Table 2), but not for the
native angiosperms and centipedes (Table 2). Area was the most important
predictor in almost all models (Table 2; Figure 4). LGM-related
variables emerged as important predictors for all angiosperm chorotypes,
except for the Greek endemics and the SIEs (Table 2; Figure 4). MSL area
loss had an insignificant negative effect on SIE richness patterns
(Table 2; Figure 4).
