“…The pattern of the photoperiodic modification of thermal reaction norms in A. communis is entirely different from what we found in the linden bug Pyrrhocoris apterus and the red poplar leaf beetle Chrysomela populi [17,18]. In the latter cases, short-day conditions promoted a decrease both in the regression coefficient and in threshold, i.e., the larval development became more temperature-dependent as compared to the long-day group (Fig.…”

Amara communis larvae were found to develop significantly faster and to have higher growth rate at short-day (12 h) as compared to long-day (22 h) photoperiods at all used temperatures (16, 18, 20, and 22°С). The coefficient of linear regression of larval development rate on temperature was significantly higher at the short day than at the long day. The thermal developmental thresholds appeared similar at both photoperiods. Body weight of young beetles reared under different photoperiods was almost the same. Thus, photoperiod does not simply accelerate or decelerate insect development, but modifies the thermal reaction norm. At short days, larval development becomes faster and more temperature-dependent, which provides a timely completion of development at the end of summer. The analysis of literature data has allowed us to find the photoperiodic modification of thermal requirements for development in 5 insect orders: Orthoptera, Heteroptera, Coleoptera, Lepidoptera, and Diptera. Modification may result in significant changes in the slope of the regression line, and hence the sum of degree-days, and in the thermal developmental threshold. Consequently, the thermal requirements for development in many insects gradually vary during summer under the effect of changing day-length, which may have adaptive significance. Thus, the photoperiodic modification of thermal reaction norms acts as a specific form of seasonal control of insect development.

“…While this pattern is consistent with the observed overall decrease in beetle body size over time, it suggests that increased temperature does not categorically result in smaller beetle body sizes. These data provide indirect support for laboratory studies demonstrating that the effect of temperature on insect body size can be dependent on photoperiod (Kutcherov, ; Kutcherov, Lopatina, & Kipyatkov, ; Xi, Wu, Nylin, & Sun, ). Additionally, if increased spring temperature (but not increased autumn temperature) is associated with an elevated availability of resources, these beetle data would support the Supply‐Demand (SD) model of the temperature–size rule (DeLong, ), which posits that variability in resource availability can mediate the effect of temperature on ectotherm body size.…”

Body size is a fundamental ecological trait and is correlated with population dynamics, community structure and function, and ecosystem fluxes. Laboratory data from broad taxonomic groups suggest that a widespread response to a warming world may be an overall decrease in organism body size. However, given the myriad of biotic and abiotic factors that can also influence organism body size in the wild, it is unclear whether results from these laboratory assays hold in nature. Here we use datasets spanning 30 to 100 years to examine whether the body size of wild-caught beetles has changed over time, whether body size changes are correlated with increased temperatures, and we frame these results using predictions derived from a quantitative review of laboratory responses of 22 beetle species to temperature. We found that 95% of laboratory-reared beetles decreased in size with increased rearing temperature, with larger-bodied species shrinking disproportionately more than smaller-bodied beetles. In addition, the museum datasets revealed that larger-bodied beetle species have decreased in size over time, that mean beetle body size explains much of the interspecific variation in beetle responses to temperature, and that long-term beetle size changes are explained by increases in autumn temperature and decreases in spring temperature in this region. Our data demonstrate that the relationship between body size and temperature of wild-caught beetles matches relatively well with results from laboratory studies, and that variation in this relationship is largely explained by interspecific variation in mean beetle body size. This long-term beetle dataset is one of the most comprehensive arthropod body size datasets compiled to date, it improves predictions regarding the shrinking of organisms with global climate change, and together with the meta-analysis data, call for new hypotheses to explain why larger-bodied organisms may be more sensitive to temperature.

“…, Kutcherov et al. ), and will determine the importance of this mechanism in shaping the phenology of a given species. A possible, testable prediction from our results is that species with particularly strong photoperiodic regulation of development rate should show smaller shifts in their phenologies (e.g., voltinism or flight dates) in response to short‐term temporal variation in climate, than would species with little or no such larval photoperiodism.…”

The seasonal cycle varies geographically and organisms are under selection to express life cycles that optimally exploit their spatiotemporal habitats. In insects, this often means producing an annual number of generations (voltinism) appropriate to the local season length. Variation in voltinism may arise from variation in environmental factors (e.g., temperature or photoperiod) acting on a single reaction norm shared across populations, but it may also result from local adaptation of reaction norms. However, such local adaptation is poorly explored at short geographic distances, especially within latitudes. Using a combination of common‐garden rearing and life cycle modeling, we have investigated the causal factors behind voltinism variation in Swedish populations of the butterfly Pararge aegeria, focusing on a set of populations that lie within a single degree of latitude but nonetheless differ in season length and voltinism. Despite considerable differences in ambient temperature between populations, modeling suggested that the key determinant of local voltinism was in fact interpopulation differences in photoperiodic response. These include differences in the induction thresholds for winter diapause, as well as differences in photoperiodic regulation of larval development, a widespread but poorly studied phenomenon. Our results demonstrate previously neglected ways that photoperiodism may mediate insect phenological responses to temperature, and emphasize the importance of local adaptation in shaping phenological patterns in general, as well as for predicting the responses of populations to changes in climate.
