ABSTRACT

Simple Summary At the end of the 20th century, the Italian locust became one of the most important pests in extratropical Eurasia. However, our knowledge about its ecology and distribution is primarily restricted by species upsurges. This is why opportunities to predict long-term changes in the Italian locust distribution and population dynamics are very limited. In this article, we analyzed the data on the species distribution in the easternmost part of its range for three periods (before 1961, 1961–1997, and 1998–2022) and tried to reveal possible shifts of both the species range boundaries and areas with optimal conditions relative to global and local changes.
