Eugenia toaensis

Declining

Overview

A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.

Eugenia toaensis faces severe threats from deforestation and habitat conversion in its extremely limited range in Madagascar. The species is restricted to a tiny area of remaining forest that continues to experience pressure from agricultural expansion and logging activities. Its small population size makes it particularly vulnerable to stochastic events and further habitat degradation.

Threat summary

Habitat

Eugenia toaensis is endemic to the remaining fragments of humid montane forest in the Toamasina region of eastern Madagascar. The species occurs in primary and secondary forest habitats at mid-elevations, typically in areas with high humidity and dense canopy cover.
