Overview

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

Oidaematophorus rogenhoferi faces significant pressure from habitat degradation in its specialized coastal and wetland environments. The species' narrow ecological requirements make it particularly vulnerable to changes in vegetation structure and moisture levels caused by agricultural intensification and coastal development. Climate change poses an additional threat through altered precipitation patterns that could disrupt the delicate balance of its preferred microhabitats.

Threat summary

Habitat

This plume moth inhabits coastal grasslands, salt marshes, and wetland margins where its host plants thrive in the specific moisture and salinity conditions. The species requires undisturbed areas with stable vegetation communities that support both larval development and adult feeding opportunities.
