Ectrepesthoneura tori
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Ectrepesthoneura tori faces significant pressure from habitat degradation in its restricted montane forest range. Deforestation and forest fragmentation for agricultural expansion and logging activities have reduced the availability of suitable breeding and foraging sites. Climate change poses an additional threat by altering the temperature and moisture conditions of the high-altitude ecosystems this species depends upon.
Habitat
This species inhabits montane forests and high-altitude woodland areas, typically found in the canopy and understory of mature forest ecosystems. It shows a preference for areas with dense vegetation cover that provide suitable nesting sites and abundant invertebrate prey.
