Oreolalax liangbeiensis
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Oreolalax liangbeiensis faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion and infrastructure development in its limited montane range. The species' extremely restricted distribution in the mountains of Sichuan Province makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, while climate change poses additional risks to its specialized high-altitude breeding habitats.
Habitat
This species inhabits montane forests and alpine meadows in the mountains of Sichuan Province, China, typically at elevations between 2,000-3,500 meters. It breeds in small streams, ponds, and temporary water bodies within these high-altitude ecosystems.
