Micro Gondwana: soil and litter mesofauna in the subalpine and alpine of North‐West Nelson, southern New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 52, Issue 5, Page 944-966, December 2025.

Climate Change Drives the Distribution of Insect Vectors for GLRaV‐3 on a Global Scale

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
The distribution range of seven insect vectors of GLRaV‐3 were predicted by MaxEnt model. Thermal conditions were a vital factor constraining the potential distribution ranges of all vector insects. Centroid shifts suggested that the potential distribution range of soft scale will move northward under climate change. Our study provides implications for
