northern catalpa (Catalpa speciosa)
Model Reliability: Current Distribution Only
Current Distribution Only
The model reliability (ModRel) for northern catalpa was too low (< 0.14), therefore only the current Forest Inventory & Analysis distribution is shown.

Interpretation Guide
Northern catalpa is a narrowly distributed (0.4% of area), sparse, but sometimes high IV species rarely occurring in the west-central portions of the eastern US; it has a very poor model dictating that we cannot model predictions for 2100.
Family: Bignoniaceae
Guild: opportunistic, long lived, shade intolerant
Functional Lifeform: medium to large deciduous tree
