Ningbingia australis
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Ningbingia australis faces significant pressure from habitat degradation due to agricultural expansion and urban development across its limited range in southwestern Australia. Mining activities and infrastructure development have fragmented remaining populations, while altered fire regimes and invasive plant species continue to degrade the quality of its specialized habitat requirements.
Habitat
This species inhabits specialized microhabitats within the southwestern Australian floristic region, typically occurring in sandy soils and heath communities with specific moisture and substrate requirements. It is restricted to small, fragmented patches of native vegetation that have escaped agricultural conversion.
