Substantial increases in global temperature are projected for the coming decades due to
climate change. Considering that temperature has a strong influence on insect voltinism (ie …

For insect species in temperate environments, seasonal timing is often governed by the
regulation of diapause, a complex developmental programme that allows insects to weather …

Climate change affects organisms worldwide with profound ecological and evolutionary
consequences, often increasing population extinction risk. Climatic factors can increase the …

Metabolic cold adaptation, or Krogh's rule, is the controversial hypothesis that predicts a
monotonically negative relationship between metabolic rate and environmental temperature …

Insect phenological lability is key for determining which species will adapt under
environmental change. However, little is known about when adult insect activity terminates …

Although effects of thermal stability on eggs have often been considered in vertebrates,
there is little data thermal stability in insect eggs even though these eggs are often exposed …

Abstract The Climate Variability Hypothesis (CVH) predicts that ectotherms from thermally
variable climates should have wider thermal tolerances than their counterparts living in …

Understanding the relationship between an insect's developmental rate and temperature is
crucial to forecast insect phenology under climate change. In the winter moth Operophtera …

Temperature has dramatic evolutionary fitness consequences and is therefore a major factor
determining the geographic distribution and abundance of ectotherms. However, the role …

Aim Adequate responses of species to climate changes require that thermal changes remain
compatible across different key biological aspects (eg reproduction, feeding and …
