Butterflies & Climate Change

Noting that butterflies are particularly sensitive to climate, and can therefore be used as bio-indicators of climate change, Dennis explores how butterflies adapt to climatic gradients and weather patterns, how their biogeography and evolution have responded to climate change in the past, and how they are likely to respond to future alterations due to the greenhouse effect. Of interest to students of ecology, biology, biogeography, and climatology, but accessible to non-specialists interested in butterflies or climate change.
