Sorbus bohemica
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Sorbus bohemica faces severe population decline due to its extremely limited distribution in the Bohemian region of the Czech Republic, where it exists in only a few isolated populations. The species is threatened by habitat degradation from urban development and recreational activities in its rocky outcrop environments. Climate change poses an additional risk by altering the specific microclimatic conditions this endemic species requires for survival.
Habitat
Sorbus bohemica inhabits rocky outcrops, cliff faces, and steep slopes in the Bohemian region of the Czech Republic. The species typically grows in calcareous substrates with sparse vegetation cover, often in areas with specific microclimatic conditions created by the rocky terrain.
