Pollination possibly by hummingbirds or hawk-moths. Seeds are dispersed by explosive dehiscence of the fruits (Juárez et al. 2018). The species has a small extent of occurrence (EOO = 8,347.21 km2), area of occupancy (AOO = 52 km2), locations (10 to 11), the ongoing threat of deforestation and illegal logging. This species is assessed as Vulnerable (VU). |
