Monoon cupulare

Unknown

Overview

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

Monoon cupulare faces severe pressure from deforestation and habitat conversion throughout its Southeast Asian range. The species is particularly vulnerable to logging operations and agricultural expansion, as it depends on mature forest ecosystems that are increasingly fragmented. Urban development and infrastructure projects have further reduced available habitat, while the slow growth rate of this tree species limits its ability to recover from population losses.

Threat summary

Habitat

Monoon cupulare inhabits tropical lowland and montane forests across Southeast Asia, typically growing in primary and secondary forest ecosystems. The species prefers well-drained soils in both coastal and inland forest environments, often found at elevations up to 1,000 meters.
