Beilschmiedia ambigua is a species of plant in the family Lauraceae.[2] It is endemic to the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[3] It is threatened by habitat loss.
Distribution
Beilschmiedia ambigua is found in the Marungu highlands, along the Pweto and Moba roads, and also along the western shores of Lake Tanganyika.[4]
Threats
One concern for the Beilschmiedia ambigua species is that its native habitat has become degraded by logging, and the stream banks have become eroded by cattle.[4]
