By using species occurrence data and available environmental predictor variables, we have constructed Species Distribution Models (SDMs) for the species Stellagama stellio and Dolichophis jugularis in Cyprus. Those SDMs were computed using three different suites of models; Generalized Additive Models (GAM), Generalized Linear Models (GLM) and Maximum Entropy Models (MaxEnt). The discriminatory capacity of each model’s performance has been evaluated using Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve (AUC) and a weighted ensemble has been computed based on all SDMs. Analyses were performed using the package “dismo” (Robert J. Hijmans, Steven Phillips, John Leathwick and Jane Elith, 2020) implemented using Rstudio in R 4.1.0 program language.

Knowledge Transfer Package (KTP) is a comprehensive integrated tool for transferring the acquired knowledge to fellow researchers worldwide. The KTP includes numerous information regarding methodology used, results (maps, models, tables, figures etc.) and recommendations along with some raw data on the behaviour of the two species studied. The KTP will be openly acceccible upon publication of the relevant scientific work.
