This species, like others in the Geometridae family, is an essential part of its ecosystem, contributing to the biodiversity and ecological balance. The habitats of Scopula lugubriata often include forested areas and grasslands, where they play roles in pollination and serve as indicators of environmental health. The species' adaptation to these regions highlights the rich and varied Lepidoptera fauna of Central Africa.^[3]
