Spermophorides lascars
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Spermophorides lascars faces severe population decline primarily due to habitat destruction from agricultural expansion and urban development across its limited range. The species' specialized ecological requirements make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes, with fragmented populations showing reduced genetic diversity and reproductive success.
Habitat
This species inhabits specialized microhabitats within tropical and subtropical ecosystems, typically requiring specific soil conditions and vegetation associations. It shows strong preference for undisturbed areas with particular moisture and temperature regimes that are increasingly rare due to human activities.
