BIO SKETCH The authors of this manuscript acted as guest editors for the "Fire ecology for the 21st century: conserving biodiversity in the age of megafire" Special Issue and encompass expertise in fire ecology and behaviour from a range of ecosystems across the globe. Recent megafires have alarmed conservation scientists and practitioners because their scale and intensity demands new ways of thinking about biodiversity conservation in fire-prone landscapes, and, potentially, new tools tailored to avoid or minimise fire-induced declines and extinctions (Wintle et al., 2020). 67 Ward, M., Tulloch, A.
