While many studies have shown elevational patterns in species richness and species turnover, little is known about how multi- species interactions respond to elevation. An understanding of how species interactions are affected by current clines in climate is imperative if we are to make predictions about how ecosystem function and stability will be affected by climate change. This challenge has been addressed here by focussing on a set of intimately interacting species: leaf-mining insects, their host plants and their parasitoid predators. Herbivorous insects, including leaf miners, and their host plants and parasitoids interact in diverse and complex ways, but relatively little is known about how the nature and strengths of these interactions change along climatic gradients.

Jackes Magnetic Island (190 08 S, 1480 50 E), offshore from the north Queensland city of Townsville, was first named by Captain James Cook in 1770. He called it “Magnetical Point, land which has the appearance of an island”, because his compass moved erratically as he passed it. This large island, about 5,000 ha in area, rises to 493 m at Mt Cook, the highest point.
