is the largest butterfly in China and is highly valued for its ornamental beauty. Due to being classified as a national second-class protected species in China, studying its spatial distribution is crucial for developing effective conservation measures. In this study, a total of 490 distribution points were obtained, and the potential distribution areas of the golden-sheathed were analyzed by using the maximum entropy model (MaxEnt) based on three different greenhouse gas emission scenarios, namely, SSP1-2.

The data were initially processed through differential analysis and prognostic correlation analysis, then a Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model was constructed by M-cohort and a nomogram was designed to increase the model readability. The T-cohort was used for internal validation, with the GSE32894 and Imvigor210 cohorts used as external data to verify the model's accuracy.

To understand how responds to future climate conditions, an optimized Maximum Entropy Model (Maxent) was used to simulate the potential global distribution patterns of under current climate conditions and three different future climate scenarios and to analyze the dominant factors influencing its distribution. The results indicate that Bio18 (precipitation of the warmest quarter), Bio04 (temperature seasonality), Bio06 (minimum temperature of the coldest month), and Bio02 (mean diurnal temperature range) are the main environmental factors affecting the distribution of this species.
