The Cape Floristic Region of South Africa (CFR) is the smallest of the world’s six floristic regions, and is known for both its high biodiversity and high number of endemic species, or species that exist nowhere else. Among such species are sundews in the genus Drosera, which are small, herbaceous, and carnivorous flowering plants. Of the 34 species of Drosera in Africa and Madagascar, 21 of them are endemic to South Africa. Drosera in South Africa can be grouped into two categories: generalist species that are widespread in their distribution, and specialist species with highly restricted ranges, often known from only a few sites. The high diversity and variety of life history strategies of Drosera in South Africa make the genus an excellent model system for the study of species distribution through the lens of global change. For this project, occurrence data was sourced from citizen science platforms iNaturalist and iSpot, as well as from publicly accessible herbarium and biodiversity databases. Using MaxEnt niche modeling software, occurrence data for Drosera in South Africa were used in combination with geographic and climatic data from WorldClim to create a niche occupancy model, which predicted the distribution of these species. This model was used in combination with future climate estimates from WorldClim to predict changes in the distribution of Drosera species in South Africa in response to climate change. Results from this study suggest that generalist species are less susceptible to climate change than specialist species with already highly restricted ranges. Understanding how species respond to global climate change is crucial for the success of long-term conservation initiatives.
