It is threatened due to habitat loss by clearance of forest.[1] It was first described as Melodorum africanum in 1862 by George Bentham.[3] DescriptionThe tree Xylopia africana is up to 20 metres tall, DBH 30 cm. It has yellow to yellow-orange flowers. Its seed pods are 6.6-10.5 cm long and contain up to 5 seeds.[4] DistributionXylopia africana grows in montane and submontane mossy forests at elevations of 900–2000 m.[4] It occurs in southeastern Nigeria (Obudu), western Cameroon (Mount Cameroon, Bakossi, Rumpi Hills, Fosimondi, Bali Ngemba), São Tomé and Príncipe (São Tomé Island) and Equatorial Guinea (Bioko island).[1]References1. ^1 2 {{cite journal|url=https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/45423/3001846|page=e.T45423A3001846|title=Xylopia africana |author=Cheek, M. |year=2014|journal=The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species|accessdate=29 January 2019|doi= 10.2305/IUCN.UK.2014-3.RLTS.T45423A3001846.en}} 2. ^{{ThePlantList|kew-2468109|Xylopia africana|accessdate=29 January 2019}} 3. ^{{Tropicos|1602843|Melodorum africanum|accessdate=29 January 2019}} 4. ^1 {{cite journal|title=A revision of Xylopia L.
