Juniperus angosturana, or slender oneseed juniper, [2] is a species of conifer in the family Cupressaceae. [1]
The tree is endemic to north-eastern Mexico. [3] It is found in habitats of the Sierra Madre Oriental range, within the states of Coahuila, Hidalgo, Nuevo León, Queretaro, San Luis Potosí, and Tamaulipas. [3]
Data are lacking to estimate rates of decline, both in the past and for the future, but a continuing decline is inferred from the situation that much of the population of Juniperus angosturana occurs on land that is increasingly under pressure from grazing livestock. [3]
