1. Rarity in boreal stream: patterns, causes and consequences
Sammanfattning : Patterns of site occupancy among boreal stream insects were studied in central Sweden with focus on sparsely distributed species and the role of dispersal and niche limitations.In the study of dispersal limitation, I found that effects of an extraordinarily harsh winter in small to medium-sized streams were strongest in sites located in small streams and far from lake outlets.

2. Evolution of Dispersal and Habitat Exploration in Butterflies
Sammanfattning : The development of wings may be one of the most important reasons for the great diversity among insects. Being able to move makes it possible to colonise new areas and explore resources in the surroundings. However, developing dispersal-related traits, like wings or flight muscles, is costly and moving can also be dangerous. LÄS MER
