Understanding and predicting how adaptation will contribute to species' resilience to climate
change will be paramount to successfully managing biodiversity for conservation …

Phenotypic plasticity, the property by which living organisms express different phenotypes
depending on environmental conditions, can impact their response to environmental …

Insects around the world are rapidly declining. Concerns over what this loss means for food
security and ecological communities have compelled a growing number of researchers to …

Seasonality is a critically important aspect of environmental variability, and strongly shapes
all aspects of life for organisms living in highly seasonal environments. Seasonality has …

Highlights•Variable insect phenological shifts alter synchrony and interactions.•Temperature-
sensitive insect development can account for variable phenological shifts.•Lab experiments …

Insects have distinct life stages that can differ in their responses to environmental factors. We
discuss empirical evidence and theoretical models for ontogenetic variation in thermal …

The magnitude and ecological impact of climate change varies with latitude. Several recent
models have shown that tropical ectotherms face the greatest risk from warming because …

Natural history collections (NHCs) have been indispensable to understanding longer‐term
trends of the timing of seasonal events. Massive‐scale digitization of specimens promises to …

An enormous amount of work has been done on aging in Drosophila melanogaster, a
classical genetic and molecular model system, but also in numerous other insects. However …

Acclimation and other forms of plasticity that can increase stress resistance feature strongly
in discussions surrounding climate change impacts or vulnerability projections of insects …
