Talisia parviflora

Declining

Overview

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

Talisia parviflora faces significant pressure from deforestation and agricultural expansion throughout its limited range in the Atlantic Forest region of Brazil. The species' restricted distribution makes it particularly vulnerable to habitat fragmentation, as remaining forest patches become increasingly isolated. Urban development and cattle ranching continue to reduce the quality and connectivity of its forest habitat, while climate change may alter the specific environmental conditions this species requires for reproduction and survival.
