Glochidion stylosum
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Glochidion stylosum faces significant pressure from deforestation and habitat conversion throughout its limited range in Southeast Asian tropical forests. Agricultural expansion, particularly oil palm plantations and subsistence farming, has fragmented its forest habitat into increasingly isolated patches. Urban development and logging activities further reduce available habitat, while the species' apparent narrow ecological requirements make it particularly vulnerable to these landscape-level changes.
Habitat
This species inhabits lowland and hill tropical rainforests, typically found in the understory of primary and mature secondary forests. It occurs in areas with high humidity and consistent rainfall, often associated with well-drained soils on slopes and ridges.
