Oreopanax nymphaeieiFolius

The home of Oreopanax NymphaeieiFolius is located in the southern part of Mexico and in Guatemala. This species belongs to the Araliaceae family and is known for their striking leaves and their ecological importance.

Botanical characteristics

Oreopanax NymphaeieiFolius is an evergreen tree or shrub that typically reaches heights of 5 to 15 meters. The plant has large, shiny leaves that are reminiscent of the leaves of water lilies, which gives it the name "Nymphen -leafy Oreopanax". The flowers are small and inconspicuous, but later develop into small, round fruits that are spread by birds and other animals.

Ecological adaptability

Oreopanax NymphaeiFolius thrives best in the moist regions of Central America. The plant prefers well -permeable floors and high humidity, but also tolerates dry periods as soon as it is established. This species is important for the stability and biodiversity of the ecosystems of their regions of origin and offers living space and food for different animal species.

Conservation and threats

Although Oreopanax NymphaeieiFolius is currently not classified as endangered, it is nevertheless threatened by design, mining and climate change. The loss of living space and the fragmentation of forest areas could lead to a decline in populations and losses in genetic diversity in the long term. It is therefore important to take protective measures to ensure the long -term livelihood of this kind.
