Hi Donna:
Re the post-fire larvae, these would be of beetles.  This fire-association =
strategy was studied in the 60s by W. G. Evans in Canada and came into prom=
inence anew in the late 90=92s with the work of Helmut Schmitz and colleagu=
es in Germany.  The interest particularly is/was in sensory physiology/anat=
omy, in trying to explain by what means the adult beetles manage to detect =
and home in on forest fires from very large distances. Schmitz & Bleckmann =
concluded carefully that the sensitivity to heat was such that this could b=
e from up to 12 km distant, for a 10 x 10 hectare intense fire.  In a later=
 huge oil tank fire in California with no local beetle population, a more i=
ffy estimate was that the huge numbers of beetles that bothered firefighter=
s must have flown in from 130 km away. The adult beetles manage this with a=
 pair of pit organs on the underside of the thorax, that they expose toward=
s the fire when flying.  These pits contain ~70 infrared (IR) detector neur=
ons each, sensitive in the IR wavelength range from 2 - 4 =B5m, where there=
 is an atmospheric window that facilitates the IR pits =92seeing=92 the rad=
iation clearly (water vapor closes off some other atmospheric wavebands).  =
The antennae can also detect volatiles from smoke, but not at such large di=
stances, and other sense organs like the compound eyes were eliminated.  Th=
e original mechanism was thought to be mechanical based on something next t=
o the receptor endings expanding as in a bolometer, but later work has sugg=
ested that accessory structures contain a special protein that absorbs radi=
ation well at 3 =B5m (that=92s 3 * 10^-6 meters), and that is needed to exp=
lain the extreme level of sensitivity.  IR sensitivity is rare in nature, t=
hough certain snakes like pit vipers have special organs on the face that a=
re used to home in on warm-blooded prey at night, with a sensitivity simila=
r to the beetles'.

The larvae likely would be Buprestidae (jewel beetles, species Melanophila =
acuminata, in the Schmitz work; this genus and species is also present in N=
. America).  The beetles fly in while the fire is burning and lay eggs very=
 soon afterwards on the burnt trunks.  The behaviour is explained evolution=
arily by the beetles having found a special niche to exploit, in which the =
anti-insect defensive reactions of the tree (like production of pitch) have=
 been overcome by the fire:  the larvae need these defenses to be down and =
apparently can=92t attack healthy trees.  Fires occur often in Autumn when =
the beetles are primed to lay eggs.  Interestingly, while the eggs overwint=
er and some larvae develop and emerge the next year, others go through one =
or even two extra winters before emerging.  This is seen as a safety strate=
gy in case there is no detectable local fire the next year, in which case t=
he local beetle population could not survive to reproduce =97 no burnt tree=
s.

Apparently, there are other beetle genera that use this fire-attraction str=
ategy.  If you google "infrared detection beetles=94 you=92ll get more than=
 you care to read, though a lot of it is about IR detection instrumentation=
.
