Eugenia kellyana
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Eugenia kellyana faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to urban development and agricultural expansion across its limited range. The species' extremely restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized disturbances, while invasive plant species compete for resources in its native forest habitats. Climate change poses additional pressure through altered precipitation patterns affecting the moist forest conditions this endemic species requires.
Habitat
Eugenia kellyana is endemic to moist tropical forests and forest edges in its restricted range. The species typically occurs in lowland to montane forest ecosystems with high humidity and consistent moisture levels.
