Interpretation Guide
Ogeechee tupelo is very rare (0.1% of area), only in a small portion of southern Georgia. The model is unacceptable for predicting future suitable habitat, and its adaptability is rated as low, so the species has risk under climate change.
Family: Cornaceae
Guild: opportunistic, dispersal limited
Functional Lifeform: small deciduous tree or shrub
