A single hot event that does not affect survival but decreases reproduction in the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella.

Extremely hot events (usually involving a few hours at extreme high temperatures in summer) are expected to increase in frequency in temperate regions under global warming. The impact of these events is generally overlooked in insect population prediction, since they are unlikely to cause widespread...
