Understanding the relationship between fire and biological communities, including fire-dependent and fire-sensitive species, is vital for ecosystem management. This project aimed to assess the post-fire response of plant and invertebrate communities in Shorea robusta forests. For this study, we conducted fieldwork in Chitwan National Park within Terai Arc Landscapes. The project was completed successfully under the principal investigator Dr. Shanta BudhaMagar, a Fire Ecologist including other multidisciplinary members; Mr. Bimal Raj Shrestha (Butterfly Taxonomist and Ecologist), Ms. Gunja Magar (Spider Taxonomist), Mr. Sawan Rajbanshi (Plant Taxonomist) and Nature guide Mr. Tek Bahadur Gurung
