Orangia sporadica

Unknown

Overview

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

Orangia sporadica faces severe population decline primarily due to habitat destruction from agricultural expansion and urban development across its limited range. The species' naturally fragmented distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to local extinctions, while climate change is altering the specific microhabitat conditions this specialized species requires for survival.

Threat summary

Habitat

Orangia sporadica inhabits specialized microhabitats within fragmented forest patches and woodland edges, typically requiring specific soil conditions and moisture levels.
