Recent community warming of moths in Finland is driven by extinction in the north and colonisation in the south - Nature Communications As Finland’s climate warms, cold-adapted moths are disappearing in the north while warm-loving species move in from the south. This shift in insect communities highlights the threat climate change pos...
