The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Amphibian sensitivity to habitat modification is associated with population trends and species traits (2017, background): “For many amphibians, there is little information on population status with which to assess extinction risk or direct limited conservation resources—in part owing to rapid discovery of species and geographical research biases (Catenazzi, 2015; Gardner, Barlow, & Peres, 2007).”
Habitat availability for amphibians and extinction threat: a global analysis (2015, background): “Two IUCN criteria evaluate threat status on the basis of AOO: criterion B2 and criterion D2 (IUCN, 2001).”
Determinants and Consequences of Dispersal in Vertebrates with Complex Life Cycles: A Review of Pond-Breeding Amphibians (2018, background): “Additionally, a comprehensive understanding of dispersal in this group is key in supporting evidence-based conservation, a pressing global issue since amphibians are the most threatened class of vertebrates (Catenazzi 2015).”
Ecological Opportunity and Adaptive Radiation (2016, background): “The IUCN Red List currently classifies >30% of frogs and toads (Anura), and >49% of newts and salamanders (Urodela)—representing a wide range of ecological diversity—as either extinct or threatened with extinction (Catenazzi 2015).”
