Bulbostylis pseudoperennis

Unknown

Overview

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

Bulbostylis pseudoperennis faces severe pressure from agricultural expansion and cattle grazing in its limited range across southeastern Brazil's Atlantic Forest region. Urban development and infrastructure projects continue to fragment the remaining grassland and savanna habitats where this sedge persists. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized habitat destruction and degradation.
