I have a 3 tree Fukien "forest" one of the trees has dropped all of its leaves, the others are doing fine. A minor scrape on the bark still shows green. Any suggestions?

Is it inside? I have one and past winter dropped all leafs and sat like that for about 6 weeks before starting to get leafs again. It’s outside now as it’s much happier there in some sun
 
Fukien Tea is one of those rare plants whose mysteries elude many of the most experienced - including myself :) You can provide the best care, with the best environment, and then one minute they will crash, without any known cause. Given the dessication I see in the branches and trunk, I'm pretty sure your plant is dead... but you can continue watering and hope for the best. If you don't see a hint of green in a month, it's time to toss it on the burn pile.

One other thing to do while waiting is making sure to only water as needed
