Aglaia australiensis
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Aglaia australiensis faces significant pressure from coastal development and urban expansion along Australia's eastern seaboard, where its limited range coincides with high human population density. Habitat fragmentation from infrastructure development and agricultural conversion has reduced the connectivity between remaining forest patches. Climate change poses an emerging threat through altered rainfall patterns and increased storm intensity affecting the species' coastal rainforest habitat.
Habitat
This species inhabits coastal and near-coastal rainforests and wet sclerophyll forests along Australia's eastern coast. It typically occurs in sheltered gullies and slopes with rich, well-drained soils in areas receiving high rainfall.
