Habitat & Geographic Range
Cinamomon
Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.
jaguar
Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, and tropical and subtropical grasslands and savannas, among 6 distinct biome types spanning the Neotropic and Oceanian realms. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.
Distributed across Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. Listed as Near Threatened, this species requires ongoing monitoring to prevent population decline.
Cinamomon
Cinamomon (Cinnamomum mercadoi) is a medium to large tree in the family Lauraceae, endemic to the Philippines. It is found in primary and secondary lowland and montane dipterocarp forests across several Philippine islands, growing in humid tropical conditions with high rainfall. Like other members of the genus Cinnamomum, it produces aromatic bark with a characteristic cinnamon scent, which has historically led to exploitation for use in traditional medicine and local trade as a cinnamon substitute or spice ingredient. The tree can reach substantial heights in undisturbed forest and produces simple, alternate leaves with prominent venation and small cream to yellowish flowers in panicles. The species is classified as Least Concern by the IUCN, with populations that, while affected by deforestation, remain widespread enough across the Philippine archipelago. The Philippines supports exceptional plant diversity, including a high proportion of endemic Cinnamomum species. Habitat loss from logging, agricultural expansion, and charcoal production has reduced forest cover across the Philippines substantially over recent decades. Conservation of remaining Philippine forests is critical for the country's endemic flora and fauna, including Cinnamomum mercadoi. The species also has potential significance in the sustainable cultivation of aromatic bark products as an alternative livelihood for rural communities.
jaguar
