Climatic suitability and phenological synchrony of the parasitoid Cotesia ruficrus with fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) were assessed under baseline and future climates using laboratory thermal-development experiments and process-based CLIMEX modelling. The repository contains curated occurrence records used to calibrate and validate the CLIMEX model, raw thermal-development and adult-survival datasets used to estimate developmental thresholds and degree-day requirements, and CLIMEX Growth Index outputs (weekly GIw) extracted for representative crop-production hotspots to quantify seasonal synchrony and mismatch under baseline and future scenarios.
