Stenanona migueliana

Unknown

Overview

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

Stenanona migueliana faces severe threats from deforestation and agricultural expansion throughout its limited range in Central America. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation, as remaining forest patches become increasingly isolated. Mining activities and infrastructure development pose additional pressures on the remaining lowland forest habitats where this rare tree species persists.

Threat summary
