Kibatalia macgregori
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Kibatalia macgregori faces severe threats from rapid deforestation and habitat conversion across its limited range in the Philippines. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to logging operations and agricultural expansion that fragment its remaining forest habitat. Mining activities and infrastructure development further compound the pressure on this endemic tree species.
Habitat
This endemic Philippine tree species inhabits primary and secondary lowland tropical forests, typically found in areas with rich, well-drained soils. It occurs in both dipterocarp forests and mixed tropical forest communities at elevations from sea level to moderate altitudes.
