Bulbophyllum aubrevillei

The species experiences continuing decline in its habitat quality because of habitat destruction or loss due to mining activities, logging, wood harvesting for subsistence, and slash-and-burn agriculture (tavy).

Sixteen occurrences of Bulbophyllum aubrevillei have been recorded from eight protected areas: the Analamazaotra National Park, the Corridor Ankeniheny Zahamena Natural Resources Reserve (Ankerana forest and Main parcel), the Mangabe-Ranomena-Sahasarothra Natural Ressources Reserve, the Mangoky Ihotry complex Protected Harmonious Landscape, the Mantadia National Park, the Marojejy National Park, the Maromizaha Natural Resources Reserve, and the Ranomafana National Park. One collection (one occurrence) of this species has also been made in the Conservation Zone surrounding the footprint of a mining project undergoing intense human pressure such as forest clearing. This zone would be subject to protection in the near future. The species is listed in Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES). It has also been brought to cultivation at the Tsimbazaza shade houses.
