Taxonomic Notes:<\/td>\nAccording to Cronquist (1991), this species belongs to Taxonomic Division Magnoliophyta and Sub-class Rosidae. This species is popularly known as Uri Aam. The species was first named and described by William Roxburgh as Mangifera oppositifolia<\/em> (Roxb. 1814, 1824). Later it was transferred to the genus Bouea<\/em> by Meissner in 1837. Therefore, according to ICN, its correct citation is Bouea oppositifolia <\/em>(Roxb.) Meisn.<\/p>\n

Justification:<\/td>\nPlum Mango (B. oppositifolia)<\/em> occurs in nine different locations of Chattogram division and its Extent of Occurrence (EOO) is 9,663.70 km2 <\/sup>and Area of Occupancy (AOO) is 704 km2<\/sup>. Based on both EOO and AOO, it is assessed under Vulnerable Category. The population size and the number of mature individuals of this species are unknown. Two locations such as Signal hill (Sinclair 1955) and Chainda forest (Rahman 2013) of Cox\u2019s Bazar district are seemed to have been declined due to destruction of habitat by human interferences. Besides, no report has been found of its occurrence from these two sites since 1955 and 1970 respectively. Moreover, it is found to represent by a single plant only in each of two other locations, Baroiyadhala and Hazarikhil (Rahman 2017). Since its number of locations are less than 10, and there is a decline of two locations and habitat quality, therefore, it meets the sub-criteria ab(i,ii,iii) of Criterion B1 and of B2. Hence, this species is assessed as VU B1ab(i,ii,iii)+2ab(i,ii,iii).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

History<\/td>\nBurmese Plum has not been assessed earlier in Bangladesh following the \u201cIUCN Red List Categories and Criteria\u201d. However, it has been cited as Not Evaluated (Sultana 2008), Endangered (Rahman 2013), and Rare (Uddin and Hassan 2018).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
