Plasticity drives extreme cold tolerance of emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) during a polar vortex [PDF]
Current Research in Insect Science, 2022 Invasive species must often survive combinations of environmental conditions that differ considerably from their native range; however, for a given species it is unclear whether improved tolerance is the result of phenotypic plasticity or genetic ...

Predicted Global Redistribution of Pyrophilous Beetle <i>Melanophila acuminata</i> (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) Under Climate Change. [PDF]
Ecol EvolMelanophila acuminata's core suitable habitat is projected to shrink by ~36% and shift northwestward under high‐emission scenarios, with Northern Europe and Canada as key future conservation priorities. ABSTRACT The pyrophilous beetle Melanophila acuminata is a decomposer of freshly burned wood, playing a critical role in nutrient cycling within forest
