Continent‐wide parallel urban evolution of increased heat tolerance in a common moth

Continent‐wide parallel urban evolution of increased heat tolerance in a common moth

Abstract Urbanization and its urban‐heat‐island effect (UHI) have expanding footprints worldwide. The UHI means that urban habitats experience a higher mean and more frequent extreme high temperatures than rural habitats, impacting the ontogeny and resilience of urban biodiversity. However, many org...
