The story of endurance: Biogeography and the evolutionary history of four Holarctic butterflies with different habitat requirements
Abstract Aim Biogeographical studies on the entire ranges of widely distributed species can change our perception of species’ range dynamics. We studied the effects of Pleistocene glacial cycles on current butterfly species distributions, aiming to uncover complex biogeographic patterns in the Holar...

Abstract Aim Biogeographical studies on the entire ranges of widely distributed species can change our perception of species’ range dynamics.
