Diospyros dalyom
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Diospyros dalyom faces severe pressure from deforestation and habitat conversion for agricultural expansion and logging activities throughout its limited range. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, with remaining populations fragmented across increasingly isolated forest patches. Mining activities and infrastructure development pose additional risks to the remaining habitat fragments where this endemic tree persists.
Habitat
This endemic tree species inhabits tropical lowland and montane forests, typically occurring in primary and secondary forest ecosystems with well-drained soils. It is found in forest understory and canopy environments within its restricted geographic range.
