Climate change and elevational range shifts: evidence from dung beetles in two European mountain ranges

AIM: Mountain regions are particularly well‐suited for investigating the impact of climate change on species ranges because they encompass both upper and lower limits of species distribution. Here, we investigate changes in the elevational distribution of dung beetle species (Coleoptera: Scarabaeoid...
