Poleward shifts in geographical ranges of butterfly species associated with regional warming

TL;DR: The authors showed that migratory species can respond rapidly to yearly climate variation, and further global warming is predicted to continue for the next 50-100 years, and some migratory animals can respond quickly to climate variation.

TL;DR: This dissertation aims to provide a history of web exceptionalism from 1989 to 2002, a period chosen in order to explore its roots as well as specific cases up to and including the year in which descriptions of “Web 2.0” began to circulate.

Species richness of Coleoptera in mature managed and old-growth boreal forests in southern Finland

TL;DR: The beetle (Coleoptera) fauna of old-growth spruce (Picea abies) forest was compared with that from managed mature and overmature forests in southern Finland and the species richness of Coleoptera as a whole was higher in overmatures than in mature managed stands, suggesting the value of long-rotation stands in preserving species assemblages typical ofold-growth forests may be limited.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comprehensive gene and taxon coverage elucidates radiation patterns in moths and butterflies

TL;DR: A rigorous and comprehensive analysis of lepidopteran affinities found Ditrysia to be a monophyletic taxon with the clade Tischerioidea + Palaephatoidea being the sister group of it and Butterflies were found to be more closely related to ‘microlepidopterans’ groups of moths rather than the clades Macrolepidoptera, where they have traditionally been placed.
