A newly emerged silver-studded blue Plebejus argus, still attended by Lasius niger ants, with which it has an obligatory mutualism in the caterpillar stage. This adult was photographed in section 11 early in the morning, when most emergences occur (photo: Jordi Jubany).

Background. Higher education is faced with the challenges of global change which requires innovative curriculum adaptations. In this context, this research aims to develop practical guidelines for higher education institutions in implementing curriculum changes by utilizing artificial intelligence (AI). Purpose. The aim of the research is to develo...
Trees are pivotal to global biodiversity and nature’s contributions to people, yet accelerating global changes threaten global tree diversity, making accurate species extinction risk assessments necessary. To identify species that require expert-based re-evaluation, we assess exposure to change in six anthropogenic threats over the last two decades...
Land scarcity is increasing over time, driven by complex multisector dynamics. The impacts of land scarcity on the economy and environment are multi‐faceted and regional, so any action to convert land will contain inherent tradeoffs. These impacts are complicated by the deeply uncertain evolution of the various sectors influencing land scarcity. A...
Increasingly, tropical studies based on aboveground traits have suggested that lianas have a more acquisitive strategy than trees, thereby possibly explaining the increase in lianas relative to trees in many tropical forests under global change. However, few studies have tested whether this pattern can be extended to root traits and temperate fores...
Plant communities experience impacts of increasing numbers of global change factors (e.g., warming, eutrophication, pollution). Consequently, unpredictable global change effects could arise. However, information about multi-factor effects on plant communities is scarce. To test plant-community responses to multiple global change factors (GCFs), we...

Abstract. This list of larval foodplants of Hungarian butterflies has been adapted from the provisional checklist written by H. E. Clarke [28]. Conservation of butterflies depends on the exact knowing of lar-val foodplants, in particular those of protected species. This list has been based on published literature and contains only data of butterflies and foodplants occurring in Hungary. However, some of the data are derived from countries with different climatic conditions and different biotopes. Therefore, this list applies to Hungarian butterflies with some reservation. A thorough investigation of foodplants in this country seems to be necessary. With 10 figures. Summary. Conservation of butterflies depends on knowing their foodplants. This list, adapted from Clarke [28] contains all Hungarian butterflies and their foodplants occurring in Hungary. The list of Hungarian butterflies is based on the textbook Macrolepidoptera of Hun-gary [173], and the list of foodplants is based on the online floral database [95]. The list is based on published literature sources; however, some of the data derived from countries with different climatic conditions, e.g. Spain, Greece and Scandinavia and different biotopes, such as high mountains and coastal areas. Therefore, this list applies to Hungarian butterflies with certain reservations. A thorough investigation of larval foodplants in this country seems to be mandatory. It is of utmost importance to know the foodplants of oligophagous or oli-gophagous-polyphagous butterflies. Courtney [29] classified butterflies according to the larval foodplants that they utilise into four main types: 4) Polyphagous: feeding on many different species of plants throughout their range, usually in different families. e.g., Vanessa cardui (Linnaeus, 1758) that utilize Urticaceae, Aster-aceae, Malvaceae, and other plants. The easiest way to discover foodplants is by finding ovipositing butterflies and signs of larval feeding. A much more sophisticated, but less precise way is by observing egg-laying preferences and/or feeding activity in captivity [54]. Probably this latter is the only feasible method in case of larvae living on trees.
