Juniperus angosturana or Slender Oneseed Juniper[2] is a species of conifer in the family Cupressaceae.[3]

Distribution

The tree is endemic to northeastern 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]
