Heptapleurum parvifoliolatum
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Heptapleurum parvifoliolatum faces severe threats from rapid deforestation and habitat conversion in its native range. The species' extremely limited distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized habitat destruction from agricultural expansion and urban development. Mining activities and infrastructure development have further fragmented the remaining forest patches where this endemic tree species occurs.
Habitat
This endemic tree species inhabits tropical montane forests and forest edges at moderate to high elevations. It typically occurs in primary and secondary forest habitats with well-drained soils and adequate moisture levels.
