VUVulnerable
Eugenia rottleriana
Unknown
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Eugenia rottleriana faces significant pressure from habitat conversion as coastal and lowland forests are cleared for agricultural expansion and urban development. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized threats, while collection pressure for its edible fruits and potential medicinal uses adds additional stress to wild populations.
Habitat
This species occurs in coastal forests, lowland tropical forests, and forest margins in peninsular India. It typically grows in well-drained soils of evergreen and semi-evergreen forest ecosystems at low to moderate elevations.
