Ecclinusa dumetorum
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Ecclinusa dumetorum faces significant pressure from deforestation and agricultural expansion throughout its limited range in the Amazon Basin. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation, as remaining forest patches become increasingly isolated. Logging activities targeting valuable timber species in its lowland forest habitat pose an ongoing threat to population stability.
Habitat
Ecclinusa dumetorum inhabits lowland tropical rainforests of the Amazon Basin, typically found in primary forest understory and secondary growth areas. The species occurs in humid forest environments at elevations below 500 meters, often associated with well-drained soils and dense canopy cover.
