Species Distribution and Climate Change

This work includes Lepidoptera records obtained from field work carried out in the area known as “Baixo Mondego” or the Lower Mondego Valley (Beira Litoral) over the years 1998 to 2005. The three main sampling areas were chosen for having some special statute of protection. The localities show some diversity in spite of their close geographical proximity. Of a total number of 570 species listed in this work, 28 are additions to Portuguese fauna of which eight are also new for the Iberian Peninsula.
