1 Appendix A Supplementary data Table A1 Data sources used to document Cabrera vole occurrences ( ) in UTM 10 km x 10 km grid squares across the Iberian Peninsula. Species occurrence in some squares were recorded by more than one study, and so the number of grid squares summed across studies is larger than the total number of grid squares with confirmed occurrences.

No.trees = GBM was run with 4000 trees, which can be considered a good compromise value (Thuiller et al. 2009a), and with 5 cross validations to select the optimal number of trees (by default). Spline = 4 - GAM in BIOMOD uses a cubic spline smoother, which is set of polynomials of degree less than or equal to 3 (Thuiller et al. 2009a). It was run with 4 degrees of freedom (by default). CV.tree = 30 - CTA was run with a 30-fold cross-validation to select the optimal length of the tree (which represents a trade-off between number of leaves and the explained deviance). CV.ann = 3 - ANN was run with the default option of 3 cross validations to select the best amount of weigh decay and the number of units in the hidden layer. BIOMOD s default options.
