Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Sorbus pyricarpa faces severe population decline due to its extremely restricted range and small population size. The species is threatened by habitat degradation from agricultural expansion and infrastructure development in its limited mountainous habitat. Climate change poses an additional threat as warming temperatures may shift suitable habitat zones beyond the species' current elevational range.
Habitat
Sorbus pyricarpa inhabits montane forests and rocky slopes at moderate to high elevations. The species typically grows in mixed deciduous woodlands and forest margins with well-drained soils.
