Adinandra corneriana

Unknown

Overview

A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.

Adinandra corneriana faces severe pressure from deforestation and habitat conversion throughout its limited range in Southeast Asian montane forests. Agricultural expansion, particularly for palm oil plantations and subsistence farming, has fragmented its specialized cloud forest habitat. The species' narrow altitudinal requirements make it particularly vulnerable to climate change impacts, as warming temperatures force suitable habitat zones upslope into increasingly restricted areas.

Threat summary

Habitat

This species inhabits montane cloud forests and upper hill dipterocarp forests at elevations between 800-1,500 meters. It typically occurs in areas with high humidity and frequent mist, growing in the understory and forest edges of primary and mature secondary forests.
