Individualistic species limitations of climate‐induced range expansions generated by meso‐scale dispersal barriers (2011, background): “Limitations in habitat availability can have strong effects on the ability of species to shift range distribution (Poyry et al., 2009).”
Recent evidence for the climate change threat to Lepidoptera and other insects (2011, background): “…in northern Europe because of climate change (e.g. Hickling et al. 2006), and widely dispersing generalists like many pests may also be able to expand their distributions relatively rapidly compared with more sedentary or habitat specialist species (Warren et al. 2001; Pöyry et al. 2009).”
Recent trends in butterfly populations from north-east Spain and Andorra in the light of habitat and climate change (2011, background): “Aside from habitat preferences, other ecological correlates could also be influencing the direction of population trends, as has been shown by other Lepidopteran studies (e.g. Koh et al. 2004; Mattila et al. 2006; Pöyry et al. 2009).”
Rapid northwards expansion of a forest insect pest attributed to spring phenology matching with sub‐Arctic birch (2011, background): “The most compelling evidence that climate-mediated range shifts are occurring, come from nonpest species, such as butterflies and dragonflies (Parmesan et al., 1999; Hickling et al., 2005; Wilson et al., 2005; Pöyry et al., 2009).”
PAPER Recent range shifts of European dragonflies provide support for an inverse relationship between habitat predictability and dispersal (2013, methodology): “This finding contradicts the results of previous studies on damselflies (Rundle et al., 2007), mayflies and stoneflies (Malmquist, 2000) and butterflies (Pöyry et al., 2009).”
Insect responses to global change offer signposts for biodiversity and conservation (2020, background): “There are many examples of high-latitude range margins of insects expanding polewards (Pöyry et al., 2009; Mason et al., 2015) and of range contractions or local extinctions at low-latitude or low-elevation range limits (Menéndez et al., 2014; Soroye et al., 2020).”
Rise of the generalists: evidence for climate driven homogenization in avian communities (2012, background): “However, habitat changes and climate are intrinsically linked; several studies have highlighted the importance of habitat as a factor affecting distribution changes in response to climate change (Warren et al., 2001; Menéndez et al., 2007; Pöyry et al., 2009), although separating cause and effect be”
Microclimatic buffering and resource‐based habitat in a glacial relict butterfly: significance for conservation under climate change (2009, background): “In these regions, their fragmented populations are typically trapped in altitudinal habitat providing little, or even no, opportunities to shift their regional range uphill (e.g., Wilson et al., 2007) or to the north (e.g., Warren et al., 2001; Pöyry et al., 2009).”
Emerging issues and challenges in conservation of biodiversity in the rangelands of Tanzania (2013, result): “Interestingly, butterfly distribution changes and population trends in southern Sweden show striking similarities with corresponding processes in Finland (Kuussaari et al. 2007; Pöyry et al. 2009).”
The push and pull of climate change causes heterogeneous shifts in avian elevational ranges (2012, background): “Past studies had moderate success relating species-specific patterns of range movements to life history and species’ traits, such as body size, habitat requirements, and fecundity (Perry et al., 2005; Moritz et al., 2008; Pöyry et al., 2009).”
