Saurauia bosuangii
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Saurauia bosuangii faces primary threats from deforestation and habitat conversion in its limited montane forest range. Agricultural expansion and logging activities continue to fragment the remaining populations, while the species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to localized habitat loss. Climate change poses an additional long-term threat by potentially shifting suitable habitat zones to higher elevations.
Habitat
Saurauia bosuangii inhabits montane tropical forests at elevations between 1,000-2,000 meters. The species is typically found in primary and secondary forest understory environments with high humidity and consistent moisture levels.
