How has anthropogenic activity affected speciation? What does this mean for how we study speciation? Can we conserve the *capacity* for speciation to maximise the regeneration of biodiversity in the long-term? I had a great time contributing to this cshperspectives.cshlp.org/co…

Just watched a white van driver shout abuse at two overseas students for following green arrow and crossing a side road, when he was following red arrow turning left and should have given them priority. This recent change to the Highway Code needs some serious driver education.

New paper alert! Tropical butterflies are not necessarily inherently more vulnerable to climate change, in fact their morphology may help them cope with rising temperatures 🦋☀️🦋 doi.org/10.1111/gcb.16797 – at Cambridge, England
