The Red List of <strong>Magnoliaceae</strong><br />

Magnolia urraoensis (Lozano)<br />

Govaerts<br />

En B1ab(iii,v)+2ab(iii,v)<br />

Colombia<br />

Magnolia urraoensis is found in forest<br />

fragments created by land conversion for<br />

livestock and agriculture, and is subjected<br />

to overexploitation for its timber. With a<br />

restricted distribution and occurring at low<br />

densities with little or very poor natural<br />

regeneration, the species is at risk. It has<br />

an extent of occurrence (EOO) of c. 4,389<br />

km 2 , an area of occupancy (AOO) of 32<br />

km 2 and is known from five locations. It is<br />

assessed as Endangered on the basis of<br />

its geographic range and declining habitat.<br />

Magnolia vallartensis A.Vázquez &<br />

Muñiz-castro<br />

cR B1ab(iii)<br />

Mexico<br />

This species is endemic to the regions of<br />

Puerto Vallarta and cabo corrientes in<br />

Jalisco, Mexico. It is found in one location<br />

and the extent of occurrence (EOO) is<br />

estimated to be less than 100 km 2 . The<br />

forest habitat of Magnolia vallartensis is<br />

declining due to forest fires, logging and<br />

rapid conversion for pasture. There are<br />

no known ex situ collections of this<br />

species. This species is listed as critically<br />

Endangered.<br />

Magnolia vazquezii cruz Durán &<br />

k.Vega<br />

En B1ab(iii)<br />

Mexico<br />

Magnolia vazquezii is a cloud forest<br />

species with a very restricted distribution,<br />

found in only one location and with an<br />

extent of occurrence of less than 500<br />

km 2 . It is likely that the AOO is c. 10 km 2 .<br />

There is no regeneration and therefore,<br />

the population consisting of only 300<br />

mature individuals will continue to<br />

decrease. However, they appear to be<br />

well conserved by local people.<br />

Magnolia ventii (n.V.Tiep) V.S.kumar<br />

En B1ab(iii); D<br />

China<br />

Magnolia ventii is considered to be<br />

Endangered as it occurs at five locations<br />

in yunnan and has a very small<br />

population, estimated to be c. 100<br />

mature individuals. Its extent of<br />

occurrence is estimated to be less than<br />

5,000 km 2 , and its habitat is continuing<br />

to decline in area and quality.<br />

Magnolia ventii (Zeng Qing-Wen)<br />

Magnolia viridipetala (y.W.Law,<br />

R.Z.Zhou & Q.F.yi) c.B.callaghan & Png<br />

En D<br />

China<br />

Magnolia viridipetala is a small tree found<br />

only in yunnan, china. The population is<br />

estimated to be fewer than 100 mature<br />

individuals, and the species is only known<br />

from the type locality. The population<br />

trends and any possible threats are not<br />

known. There are no known in situ<br />

conservation actions for this species, but<br />

there are five specimens growing in the<br />

South china Botanical Garden.<br />

Magnolia virolinensis (Lozano)<br />

Govaerts<br />

cR B1ab(iii,v)<br />

Colombia<br />

Magnolia virolinensis remains in a single<br />

location in colombia (EOO of less than<br />

100 km 2 ) where it is restricted to forests<br />

on slopes and summits with lower level<br />

forests having already been converted to<br />

agriculture.<br />

Magnolia vovidesii A.Vázquez,<br />

Domínguez-yescas & L. carvajal<br />

En B1ab(iii,v)<br />

Mexico<br />

Magnolia vovidesii is a large tree found in<br />

Veracruz, Mexico. It is a very range<br />

restricted species, with an extent of<br />

occurrence (EOO) of 85 km 2 at three<br />

locations. This species is threatened by<br />

severe habitat fragmentation and<br />

continuing decline in extent and quality of<br />

its habitat by an increase of pasture<br />

lands, firewood extraction, coffee<br />

plantations and human settlements. This<br />

species is listed as Endangered.<br />

However, very little is known about this<br />

species and more research is necessary.<br />

Magnolia wendtii A.Vázquez<br />

cR B1ab(iii)<br />

Mexico<br />

Magnolia wendtii is only known from a<br />

single collection at the type locality in<br />

Veracruz, Mexico. It is extremely rare and<br />

despite intensive explorations in the<br />

Uxpanapa and chimalapa region, no<br />

additional records of this species have<br />

been made since it was first found in<br />

1982. The extent of occurrence (EOO) is<br />

estimated to be less than 100 km 2 and<br />

the area is currently undergoing severe<br />

deforestation for conversion to pasture<br />

lands. This species is listed as critically<br />

Endangered.<br />

Assessors: Rivers, M.c., Samain, M.S. &<br />

Magnolia wetteri A.Vázquez<br />

En B1ab(iii)<br />

Costa Rica<br />

Magnolia wetteri is a large tree restricted<br />

to the southern part of costa Rica where<br />

it is only known from the Osa peninsula.<br />

Its estimated extent of occurrence (EOO)<br />

is between 40 and 1,600 km 2 and it is<br />

thought to occur in fewer than five<br />

locations. Logging has been recorded in<br />

the area where this species is found,<br />

which is thought to be causing a<br />

continuing decline in the area and quality<br />

of habitat for this species. Therefore,<br />

Magnolia wetteri is assessed as<br />

Endangered.<br />
