Faguetia falcata is native to eastern Madagascar, where it is found in southern Analanjirofo and northern Atsinanana provinces, from Soanierana Ivongo in the north to Ambila Lemaitso in the south. There are seven known subpopulations.[1]
The species is threatened by habitat loss from deforestation, caused by subsistence logging, wood harvesting for charcoal production, shifting cultivation, and human-caused fires. The species' population is declining, and it is assessed as vulnerable.[1]
