We show that moth communities are experiencing an overall “warming,” with a clear latitudinal pattern: extinction in the north and colonisation in the south.

Great to see research by myself and @richardfoxbc.bsky.social showing how you can help the common butterflies that are declining. Let your grass grow long!

Research shows that letting parts of your garden grow wild with long grass can increase butterfly numbers up to 93% and attract a wider range of species.

Where did all the butterflies go? 🚨🦋
Newly released data has revealed that 2024 was one of the worst years on record for butterflies in the UK, and more than half of butterfly species are now in long-term decline.
