Abstract
The authors sequenced the complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes of the band-legged ground cricket (Dianemobius fascipes nigrofasciatus Matsumura, 1904) and a temperate form of the lawn ground cricket (Polionemobius taprobanensis Walker, 1869), collected in Japan. The length of the mt genome sequences was 15,354 bp in D. fascipes nigrofasciatus and 16,063 bp in P. taprobanensis. Annotation of the mt genome sequences revealed 13 protein-coding genes, two rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes. The orientation of the genes was the same as in other Grylloidea species, and the order was the same as in other Trigonidiidae species. In our phylogenetic analysis, D. fascipes nigrofasciatus formed a clade with D. fascipes collected in China, and the temperate form of P. taprobanensis formed a clade with P. taprobanensis collected in China. Comparison of the numbers of positions with different amino acid residues encoded by the protein-coding genes implied the separate species status of each member of each of the two pairs of ground crickets. The mt genome sequences of D. fascipes nigrofasciatus and P. taprobanensis will contribute to phylogenetic and taxonomic studies of the Trigonidiidae.

Abstract
Climate warming is altering life cycles of ectotherms by advancing phenology and decreasing generation times. Theoretical models provide powerful tools to investigate these effects of climate warming on consumer-resource population dynamics. Yet, existing theory primarily considers organisms with simplified life histories in constant temperature environments, making it difficult to predict how warming will affect organisms with complex life cycles in seasonal environments. We develop a size-structured consumer-resource model with seasonal temperature dependence, parameterized for a freshwater insect consuming zooplankton. We simulate how climate warming in a seasonal environment could alter a key life-history trait of the consumer, number of generations per year, mediating responses of consumer-resource population sizes and consumer persistence. We find that, with warming, consumer population sizes increase through multiple mechanisms. First, warming decreases generation times by increasing rates of resource ingestion and growth and/or lengthening the growing season. Second, these life-history changes shorten the juvenile stage, increasing the number of emerging adults and population-level reproduction. Unstructured models with similar assumptions found that warming destabilized consumer-resource dynamics. By contrast, our size-structured model predicts stability and consumer persistence. Our study suggests that, in seasonal environments experiencing climate warming, life-history changes that lead to shorter generation times could delay population extinctions.

Abstract
Although it is generally more adaptive for insects to produce additional generations than to have longer life cycles, some insects produce one or fewer generations per year (univoltine or semivoltine life cycles, respectively). Some insects with the potential to produce multiple generations per year produce a univoltine life cycle in response to environmental conditions. Obligatory univoltine insects have a single long diapause or multiple diapauses in different seasons. Semivoltine insects have multiple diapauses in different years, a prolonged diapause for more than a year, or diapause controlled by a circannual rhythm. Diapause in these insects greatly varies among species both in the physiological mechanism and in the evolutionary background, and there is no general rule defining it. In this review, we survey the physiological control of univoltine and semivoltine insects' diapause and discuss the adaptive significance of the long life cycles. Although constraints such as slow development are sometimes responsible for these life cycles, the benefits of these life cycles can be explained by bet-hedging in many cases. We also discuss the effect of climate warming on these life cycles as a future area of research.

Abstract
Diapause is one of the major strategies for insects to prepare for and survive harsh seasons. In females, the absence of juvenile hormone (JH) is a hallmark of adult reproductive diapause, a developmental arrest, which is much less characterized in males. Here we show that juvenile hormone III skipped bisepoxide (JHSB3) titers in hemolymph remarkably differ between reproductive males and females of the linden bug Pyrrhocoris apterus, whereas no JH was detected in diapausing adults of both sexes. Like in females, ectopic application of JH mimic effectively terminated male diapause through the canonical JH receptor components, Methoprene-tolerant and Taiman. In contrast to females, long photoperiod induced reproduction even in males with silenced JH reception or in males with removed corpus allatum (CA), the JH-producing gland. JHSB3 was detected in the accessory glands (MAG) of reproductive males, unexpectedly, even in males without CA. If there is a source of JHSB3 outside CA or a long-term storage of JHSB3 in MAGs remains to be elucidated. These sex-related idiosyncrasies are further manifested in different dynamics of diapause termination in P. apterus by low temperature. We would like to propose that this sexual dimorphism of diapause regulation might be explained by the different reproductive costs for each sex.

Abstract
Geographical variations in the threshold of environmental cues for diapause induction are important in understanding the life history strategy of insects. Larvae of the bean blister beetle, Epicauta gorhami (Coleoptera: Meloidae), feed on grasshopper eggs and undergo hypermetamorphosis. They normally enter diapause as a pseudopupa (fifth instar). However, when the larvae are reared under long-day and high-temperature conditions, they do not enter pseudopupal diapause but pupate directly from the fourth instar. In addition, this insect is known to modify its photoperiodic response for induction of pseudopupal diapause depending on food availability for larvae. In this study, the larval photoperiodic responses for diapause induction were examined for three populations of E. gorhami collected from the northernmost (Morioka, 39.7°N), central (Kazo, 36.1°N), and southernmost (Takanabe, 32.1°N) parts of its distribution range, and the responses were examined under both fully fed and food-deprived (FD) conditions. Diapause incidence decreased in FD larvae for all populations in long-day conditions, and the critical day-lengths for the diapause incidence were calculated as 14.81, 13.97, and 13.99 h in the Morioka, Kazo, and Takanabe populations, respectively. The results indicate the presence of a geographical variation in larval photoperiodic response, in which diapause is induced earlier in higher latitudinal areas. From these results, together with data for developmental threshold temperature and thermal constant, the Morioka and Kazo populations were suggested to have a partial bivoltine life cycle under the conditions of extremely early oviposition season, a sufficient summer temperature, and poor larval food availability.

Abstract
Abstract
Recent climate change has been shown to affect phenotypic traits, such as body size and fecundity, in some animals. It is important to assess the response of a species to climate change for predicting a population’s future. We compared historic and contemporary body size and clutch size measurements in the lentic breeding salamander, Hynobius tokyoensis, collected from a wide range of latitudes in its geographical range and concluded that the species has gone through significant increases in body size and clutch size over the last four decades. Although a decrease in body size due to climate change is well documented for other species, reports of an increase in body size are rare. In addition, we found that increases in temperature and precipitation were constant regardless of latitude, but that the ratios of increase in body size and clutch size were greater in high-latitude populations. Our results suggest that, even within a species, the magnitude of the response to climate change depends on the geography of the population.

Abstract
Species' range edges are expanding to both warmer and cooler regions. Yet, no studies directly compared the changes in range-limiting traits within the same species during both types of range expansions. To increase our mechanistic understanding of range expansions, it is crucial to disentangle the contributions of plastic and genetic changes in these traits. The aim of this study was to test for plastic and evolutionary changes in heat tolerance, life history, and behavior, and compare these during range expansions toward warmer and cooler regions. Using laboratory experiments we reconstructed the thermal performance curves (TPCurves) of larval life history (survival, growth, and development rates) and larval heat tolerance (CTmax) across two recent range expansions from the core populations in southern France toward a warmer (southeastern Spain) and a cooler (northwestern Spain) region in Europe by the damselfly Ischnura elegans. First-generation larvae from field-collected mothers were reared across a range of temperatures (16°-28°C) in incubators. The range expansion to the warmer region was associated with the evolution of a greater ability to cope with high temperatures (increased mean and thermal plasticity of CTmax), faster development, and, in part, a faster growth, indicating a higher time constraints caused by a shorter time frame available for larval development associated with a transition to a greater voltinism. Our results thereby support the emerging pattern that plasticity in heat tolerance alone is inadequate to adapt to new thermal regimes. The range expansion to the cooler region was associated with faster growth indicating countergradient variation without a change in CTmax. The evolution of a faster growth rate during both range expansions could be explained by a greater digestive efficiency rather than an increased food intake. Our results highlight that range expansions to warmer and cooler regions can result in similar evolutionary changes in the TPCurves for life history, and no opposite changes in heat tolerance.

Abstract
Global climate warming has significant influence on individual development, population dynamics, and geographical distribution of many organisms, which has drawn much attention in recent years. As a large group of poikilotherms, insects whose life activities are closely linked with ambient temperature are supposed to be influenced by global warming. In order to test the consistency or difference of the effects of long-term climate warming on phytophagous insect pests in different geographical environments, this study collected historical data on the occurrence and population dynamics of three aphid pests (Myzus persicae, Aphis gossypii, and Sitobion avenae) in China, and systematically explored their phenological responses. We found that, during a period of about 60 years, in general, the first occurrence dates and the first migration dates of the three aphids almost moved earlier, while the end of the occurrence and the last migration dates were slightly delayed. However, these responses also represented geographical variation at a local scale. Basically, our results showed that the occurrence and migration seasons of these three aphid pests have been prolonged along with climate warming. This study based on historical literature data provides empirical evidence and valuable implications for understanding the impact of climate warming on insect pests and future management strategies.

Abstract
Insect phenology is affected by climate change and main responses are driven by phenotypic plasticity and evolutionary changes. Any modification in seasonal activity in one species can have consequences on interacting species, within and among trophic levels. In this overview, we focus on synchronisation mismatches that can occur between tightly interacting species such as hosts and parasitoids or preys and predators. Asynchronies happen because species from different trophic levels can have different response rates to climate change. We show that insect species alter their seasonal activities by modifying their life-cycle through change in voltinism or by altering their development rate. We expect strong bottom-up effects for phenology adjustments rather than top-down effects within food-webs. Extremely complex outcomes arise from such trophic mismatches, which make consequences at the community or ecosystem levels tricky to predict in a climate change context. We explore a set of potential consequences on population dynamics, conservation of species interactions, with a particular focus on the provision of ecosystem services by predators and parasitoids, such as biological pest control.
