Abstract
Evidence of anthropogenic global climate change is accumulating, but its potential consequences for insect distributions have received little attention. We use a ‘climate response surface’ model to investigate distribution changes at the northern margin of the speckled wood butterfly, Pararge aegeria. We relate its current European distribution to a combination of three bioclimatic variables. We document that P. aegeria has expanded its northern...
