Videna pumila

Unknown

Overview

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

Videna pumila faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion and urban development within its extremely limited range. The species' small population size makes it particularly vulnerable to stochastic events and genetic bottlenecks. Invasive plant species are altering the composition of its native habitat, while climate change poses additional pressure through shifting precipitation patterns that affect its specialized microhabitat requirements.

Threat summary

Habitat

Frequently asked questions

Why is Videna pumila classified as Critically Endangered?
Videna pumila is classified as Critically Endangered — facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild — because population sizes are very small, declining sharply, or restricted to a tiny range. Videna pumila faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to agricultural expansion and urban development within its extremely limited range. The species' small population size makes it particularly vulnerable to stochastic events and genetic bottlenecks. Invasive plant species are altering the composition of its native habitat, while climate change poses additional pressure through shifting precipitation patterns that affect its specialized microhabitat requirements.
Where does Videna pumila live?
Videna pumila occurs in across multiple regions. Country-level distribution data is sourced from the IUCN Red List and cross-referenced with GBIF occurrences.
What are the main threats to Videna pumila?
The main threats to Videna pumila are 6.2, 7.1, 8.1, and ai-1. The full IUCN-classified threat record for this species is detailed on the species page.
