Pipiza claripennis Shannon & Aubertin, 1933: 144 is associated with mature forests, currently highly fragmented by human activities in some areas of its distribution ( Miranda et al. , 2017 ). All basic aspects of its biology and ecology remain unknown in Chile . Conservation status. VU under B2ab (iii) using AOO = 40 km 2 and ten localities (or subpopulations); EOO = 51,705 km 2 .
