Abstract
Based on past herbarium records from the 1960s until 1990s a total of 26 dipterocarp species were recorded for the Segaliud Lokan area. However in the recent Species Distribution Modeling SDMs performed it was suspected that given much of the area is of Lowland Mixed Dipterocarp Forest there is a possibility that species diversity for this family could be higher than previously recorded. Therefore surveys were conducted to collect species occurrence data for the area. The surveys were carried out over various topography and soil associations the team recorded a total of 40 dipterocarp species from 6 genera. Aside from coming across species that was previously recorded another additional 26 species are found to occur in the area as well. Of the species listed there were two Sabah endemics Shorea symingtonii and Shorea waltoni and 19 Bornean endemics. As of current 50 of the species recorded in this survey are currently listed under the Threatened category in the Global IUCN Red List. It is hope that the results obtained will contribute towards the setting up of management measures for the area while the updated occurrence data will be used in the ongoing State level IUCN Red List Assessment for Dipterocarps.
