Although it is well known that insects are sensitive to temperature, how they will be affected
by ongoing global warming remains uncertain because these responses are multifaceted …

This review examines the direct effects of climate change on insect herbivores. Temperature
is identified as the dominant abiotic factor directly affecting herbivorous insects. There is little …

interaction.•Discrete generations plus climate change can lead to developmental …

The dynamics of species' distribution, in particular when it comes to predicting the outcomes
of climate change-inflicted variations in the range distributions of insect pests. Several insect …

Considering insect populations, we can see that climate change affects in many ways: it can
cause a shift in geographical spread (Porter et al., 1991; Ward and Masters, 2007) …

Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the most studied, diverse, and widespread
animal groups, making them an ideal model for climate change research. They are a …

insects.•Temperature directly affects behaviour, body size and spatiotemporal …

Insects constitute the vast majority of known animal species and are ubiquitous across
terrestrial ecosystems, playing key ecological roles. As prey, they are critical to the survival …

Climate change (first of all the rise in temperature) is currently considered one of the most
serious global challenges facing mankind. Here we review the diversity of insect responses …
