Distribution and habitat
Rhopalocarpus macrorhamnifolius is known from populations along the east coast of Madagascar, specifically in the regions of Sava, Alaotra Mangoro, Analanjirofo, Atsinanana and Anosy. Its habitat is humid to evergreen forests from sea-level to 1500 m altitude. Some populations are within protected areas.
