État de la populationTexte officiel évaluation IUCNExpert
The species is distributed in small, scattered subpopulations, ranging from a single individual to clusters of several dozen adults. The species is often found either as a single solitary palm or as small groves with large distances between subpopulations. In many cases, these subpopulations are fragmented, though the species is adapted to residential areas and pastures where it is commonly found. The population is considered in decline due to ongoing deforestation and loss of habitat associated with development (Global Forest Watch 2022).
Veloz et al. (2013) enumerated the subpopulations of Copernicia beteroana found at eight locations, totalling 685 adults, 2,360 juveniles and 518 seedlings. Several of the locations included multiple sites. However, it is difficult to know what portion of the total endemic population this represents, especially since no data from Haiti was included. Nor is it possible to estimate the degree that the population has declined over time.
