Betula Alnoides - Version 2014.3. Shaw, K., Roy, S., & Wilson, B. In The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, pages 194256/0+. 2014. abstract bibtex [Excerpt] This species has a wide distribution and is reported to be common across the majority of its range. There are no major threats reported for this species. It is therefore not considered to be threatened and is evaluated as Least Concern.~In the Chinese Red List this species is also assessed as Least Concern. [::Common Name(s)] [::]English - Himalayan birch, Indian Birch [::Range Description] The species~is distributed from Nepal eastwards to Viet Nam. The species mostly occurs below 2,000 m asl, but some records report it reaching 2,600 m asl in Yunnan and 3,000 m asl in Dudhatoli, Himalayas. Its distribution shows considerable overlap with that of its close relative B. cylindrostachya. [::Countries] Native:Bhutan; China (Fujian, Guangxi, Hainan, Hubei, Sichuan, Yunnan); India (Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Darjiling, Himachal Pradesh, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura, Uttaranchal); Lao People's Democratic Republic; Myanmar (Myanmar (mainland)); Nepal; Thailand; Viet Nam [::Population] The species is widespread and common across most of its distribution. However, it is listed as locally rare in the Garhwal district in the northwest Himalayas and Yunnan. [::Habitat and Ecology] A component of the tropical to subtropical forests, this species often grows in forests with oaks of the genus~Lithocarpus~and the alder~Alnus nepalensis~alongside such herbaceous sub-tropical ground flora plants as begonias and gingers.~In the Himalayas, this species is one of the main elements in temperate deciduous cloud forests where it is associated with Green Oak, Deodar and Silver fir trees. In Viet Nam it is found scattered in restored forests, mixed with~Calophyllum,~Quercus,~Machilus~and~Canarium~spp. or in plantations in high mountainous regions. This species is also reported to behave as a primary colonizer following disturbance such as land slips or road building. It~is commonly found along rivers, where gravels have been exposed by floods and is relatively tolerant to a range of soil texture and soil moisture.~It has been reported that trees in the wild near Kalimpong, West Bengal develop new shoots in mid October while still retaining their old leaves. This species is therefore probably evergreen. [::Use and Trade] The species~is a good timber species; the wood is hard and coarse and can be used for furniture and cabinet work and for household utensil making.~The bark is used as a medicine, applied in cases of dislocated bones and as a snake antidote when mixed with hot butter. The bark is thin and papery so can be used as a substitute for paper. The aromatic oils can be used in the leather industry and the leaves are lopped for fodder.~It is also a holy plant of Chadar (Tagin) tribe in Arunachal Pradesh, India. [::Major Threat(s)] There are no major threats to the survival of this species.
