Drought‐driven lipid deficits in overwintering monarch butterflies revealed by δ2H and fatty acid analysis

Abstract Eastern populations of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) overwinter in the central trans‐volcanic belt of Mexico, relying primarily on lipids accumulated during migration to sustain this several‐month‐long overwintering period. This study shows how drought conditions in north‐central M...
