Climate change is altering the distribution of the honeydew moth (Cryptoblabes gnidiella)
Since the 1950s, warmer winters appear to have shifted the climatic zones favourable to the daphne moth – an emerging pest of grapevines, particularly in Western Europe – further north. Conversely, rising summer temperatures have led to a reduction in these zones in North Africa and the Middle East. Researchers at INRAE have modelled these trends and projected them for the period 2041–2060.
