HIGHLIGHTS Kageneckia lanceolata is a vulnerable Neotropical tree distributed in mountain areas. Seedling survival increased with elevation of the parent tree from 40 to 80%. Damping-off was the only identified cause of seedling mortality under nursery conditions. Seed mass, germination, and growth of seedlings were not influenced by elevation.
