Angraecum lecomtei

The species continues to experience a continuing decline in habitat quality due to factors such as habitat destruction or loss caused by mining activities, forest exploitation for timber harvesting for small-scale subsistence use, fires, and slash-and-burn agricultural practices (tavy).

Ten occurrences of Angraecum lecomtei have been recorded from eight protected areas: the Analamazaotra National Park, the Ankeniheny Zahamena corridor (CAZ) Natural Resources Reserve, the Itremo Massif Protected Harmonious landscape, the Loky Manambato Massif Protected Harmonious landscape, the Mantadia National Park, the Marojejy National Park, the Befotaka Midongy du Sud National Park, and the Maromizaha Natural Resources Reserve. The species is listed in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). It has been also brought to cultivation at the Ambatovy shade houses. It should be included in the list of Malagasy protected species. Further awareness building is recommended for local communities and national authorities.
