Abstract
⺠Moist forest in SW Ethiopia is fragmented and managed for coffee cultivation. ⺠Forest management and fragmentation affect epiphytic orchid diversity. ⺠Concomitant shifts in epiphytic orchid community composition occur. ⺠Endangered orchid species occur both in small, managed and large, natural forest. ⺠Protection of pristine habitat remains essential for biodiversity conservation.
