Huberia glazioviana
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Huberia glazioviana faces severe pressure from ongoing deforestation and habitat fragmentation within Brazil's Atlantic Forest, one of the world's most threatened biodiversity hotspots. Urban expansion and agricultural conversion continue to reduce and isolate the remaining forest patches where this endemic species occurs. The species' restricted range and specialized habitat requirements make it particularly vulnerable to these anthropogenic pressures.
Habitat
This species is endemic to the Atlantic Forest (Mata Atlântica) of southeastern Brazil, occurring in humid montane and submontane forests. It typically inhabits the understory and forest edges of well-preserved forest fragments at elevations between 500-1,200 meters.
