All species of plants and animals occur over a finite area of the Earth’s surface. This is referred to as the species range, and many species ranges have shifted or are predicted to shift with climate change. Scientific models have predicted how these shifts are expected to change and what proportion of the implicated species will go extinct in the process. Most models assume that climatic variables such as temperature and rainfall are solely responsible for these range shifts. However, we know that the success of a species is strongly influenced by both their positive and negative interactions with other species, such as competition, mutualism, predation and herbivory. But how these biotic factors affect species ranges is poorly understood. I am using a field experiment on a species in its native habitat to better understand these interactions.  My study took place in the Canadian Rocky Mountains on populations of the plant Yellow Rattle (Rhinanthus minor). I studied two transects, each with plant populations at low, mid and high elevations. Insect herbivory on plant populations was observed, as well as manipulated, via a pesticide treatment to reduce insect herbivory, and a clipping treatment to simulate natural insect herbivory. Understanding herbivory and herbivore-plant interactions over an elevational gradient may help give us a clearer idea of the complex relationship between the climatic and biotic factors that affect plant species ranges.

TIn this study we present 208 new diaptomids records, including 36 species from 10 genera. They are the result of new samplings as well as of the revision of samples from previous surveys from various localities in the Neotropical Region. In an attempt to clear elucidate about the species ranges we gathered all biogeographically important data and present them here, with comments about the relevance of each record to the understanding of the distribution of the group.
