Daihinibaenetes arizonensis
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Daihinibaenetes arizonensis faces significant pressure from urban development and agricultural expansion across its limited Arizona range. The species' specialized habitat requirements make it particularly vulnerable to groundwater depletion and altered hydrological patterns from human water extraction. Climate change poses an additional threat through increased aridity and temperature extremes in the Sonoran Desert region.
Habitat
This species inhabits specialized microhabitats within the Sonoran Desert ecosystem of Arizona, typically associated with areas of higher soil moisture and specific substrate conditions. It requires particular combinations of soil chemistry and moisture levels that are increasingly rare due to human activities.
