Assessment Notes
Taxonomic notes
Nigrospora hainanensis was isolated for the first time from Musa paradisiaca from Hainan, China, clustered in a well-supported clade and appearing closely related to N. gorlenkoana (Wang et al., 2017).
Why suggested for a Global Red List Assessment?
It is not a common species, presenting about six occurrences in the world. Studies in other locations are needed to understand its distribution. I suggest including it in deficient data.
Geographic range
The species has about 6 occurrences in three countries.
Population and Trends
The species appears to be rare, with greater occurrence in China.
Population Trend:
Habitat and Ecology
In Brazil, Nigrospora hainanensis occurs as an endophyte of plants from the Atlantic Forest.
Threats
In Brazil the species is found in the Atlantic forest.
Conservation Actions
Half of the species’ occurrences are in an environmental protection area.
Research needed
Other areas should be studied in order to assess the distribution of this species.
Use and Trade
Unknown.
