  abstract = {{P}rotected areas ({PA}s) are pivotal tools for biodiversity conservation on the {E}arth. {E}urope has had an extensive protection system since {N}atura 2000 areas were created in parallel with traditional parks and reserves. {H}owever, the extent to which this system covers not only taxonomic diversity but also other biodiversity facets, such as evolutionary history and functional diversity, has never been evaluated. {U}sing high-resolution distribution data of all {E}uropean tetrapods together with dated molecular phylogenies and detailed trait information, we first tested whether the existing {E}uropean protection system effectively covers all species and in particular, those with the highest evolutionary or functional distinctiveness. {W}e then tested the ability of {PA}s to protect the entire tetrapod phylogenetic and functional trees of life by mapping species' target achievements along the internal branches of these two trees. {W}e found that the current system is adequately representative in terms of the evolutionary history of amphibians while it fails for the rest. {H}owever, the most functionally distinct species were better represented than they would be under random conservation efforts. {T}hese results imply better protection of the tetrapod functional tree of life, which could help to ensure long-term functioning of the ecosystem, potentially at the expense of conserving evolutionary history.},
