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 …

The Anthropocene is characterised by pervasive human‐inflicted impacts on a broad range
of biota, including insects. In 2019, we reviewed scientific literature quantifying the …

Regular reassessment of extinction risk is critical to prioritise conservation action during the
current period of rapid, anthropogenic biodiversity change. Butterflies are a flagship group …

Insect declines have been discussed intensively among experts, policymakers, and the
public. Albeit, decreasing trends have been reported for a long time for various regions in …

Human-induced changes in habitat amount and quality constitute the key driver behind
negative trends in global biodiversity. Conservation actions must be based on solid …

Landscape‐scale approaches are increasingly advocated for species conservation but
ensuring landscape level persistence by enlarging the size of patches or increasing their …

The aim of the study was to determine the influence of differentiated landscape management
on the distribution and abundance of butterfly species. The question was raised with regard …

Understanding which factors and processes are associated with genetic differentiation
within and among species remains a major goal in evolutionary biology. To explore …

The survival of butterfly populations depends on successful oviposition strategies. The
limited mobility of early life stages requires females to select sites that reflect larval …

In human‐altered landscapes, specialist butterflies typically form spatially restricted
populations, genetically differentiated due to dispersal restrictions. Generalists, in contrast …
