Northern Cameroon: Biophytum umbraculum grows mainly on ferruginous soil. It does not have a strict rainfall requirement provided that the soil is sufficiently moist (presence of perched water table). It is more common in areas with a rainfall greater than 1000 mm. Sciaphile species of natural environment, it persists for 3 to 4 years after clearing under the shade of the trees kept in the cultivated plots. It is an excellent indicator species of recently slashed plot.
