Chromomastax jagoi
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Chromomastax jagoi faces severe pressure from deforestation and habitat conversion throughout its limited range in Southeast Asian tropical forests. Mining activities and agricultural expansion have fragmented remaining forest patches, while the species' specialized ecological requirements make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes. Climate change poses an additional threat through altered precipitation patterns that affect the humid microhabitats this species depends upon.
Habitat
This species inhabits humid tropical rainforests, typically found in the understory and forest floor environments where it requires specific microclimate conditions. It shows preference for areas with dense canopy cover and high humidity levels characteristic of primary and mature secondary forests.
