Abstract

Aglaia sessilifolia is a tree, endemic to eastern Sabah. Due to land use changes the remaining known population is in Kabili Sepilok Forest Reserve, Sandakan. It is suspected that there has been 80% population decline in two generations (based on GeoCAT reduction analysis). The remaining estimated area of occupancy (AOO) and extent of occurrence (EOO) are both 4 km2. The occurrence of the species in a well protected area means decline is not continuing. This species is assessed as Critically Endangered. Aglaia sessilifolia is endemic to Sabah, Malaysia. It is recorded from the eastern part of the state.
