“…Based on the ground beetle activity results, it is possible to argue that pyrophilous ground beetle species may not have reproduced in the large study area. Since the first moments after the fire, the area has been colonized by individuals from distant locations [40], allowing them to spread effectively over the large area with limited trap captures. The activity of pyrophilous ground beetles concentrated in the second half of the sampling season suggests that these are likely the next generations of the initial pyrophilous colonizers that arrived from more distant sites.…”

“…Ground beetles, along with butterflies, represent the most extensively studied group of insects in relation to forest fires [18]. Burnt forests play a crucial role as an essential habitat for the pyrophilous species of ground beetles and other beetle species [33,40], as well as hymenopterans [30]. The reproduction of "fire-loving" (pyrophilous) beetles depends on forest fires [41].…”

“…Not surprisingly, evolution also brought forth some totally new sensor types. Particularly interesting is the evolution of infrared (i.e., radiant heat) sensors in fire beetles, which use them to locate recent burn areas (yet avoid actual fires; T#29; Hinz et al, 2018;Bell, 2023), and in pit vipers, which use them to hunt rodents in darkness (T#30; Newman and Hartline, 1982). The details of these novel sensor types differ between the lineages (Gracheva et al, 2010), as one would expect, given their independent evolution.…”
