Biscogniauxia cinereolilacina

Unknown

Overview

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

Biscogniauxia cinereolilacina faces significant pressure from deforestation and habitat fragmentation across its limited range in tropical forests. As a wood-inhabiting fungus dependent on specific host tree species, it is particularly vulnerable to logging activities that remove its substrate trees. Climate change poses an additional threat by altering the moisture and temperature conditions essential for its reproductive cycles and spore dispersal.

Threat summary

Habitat

This species inhabits tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, where it grows as a saprobic fungus on dead or dying hardwood trees. It requires specific microclimate conditions with high humidity and stable temperatures typical of undisturbed forest environments.
