Tarnania nemoralis
Overview
A detailed profile for this species is sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species as assessments become available.
Tarnania nemoralis faces significant pressure from deforestation and habitat fragmentation across its limited range in Southeast Asian tropical forests. Agricultural expansion, particularly oil palm plantations and logging operations, has reduced suitable forest habitat by an estimated 30-40% over the past two decades. The species' specialized ecological requirements and small population size make it particularly vulnerable to continued forest loss and degradation.
Habitat
Tarnania nemoralis inhabits primary and secondary tropical rainforests, typically found in the understory and mid-canopy layers at elevations between 200-800 meters. The species shows preference for areas with dense vegetation cover and high humidity levels characteristic of intact forest ecosystems.
