Provisional conservation status
Over the course of three years of field surveys, the species was found only in seven sites within a locality of approximately 11 ha. There were fewer than 50 individuals documented. In 2020, 20 blooming and senesced flowers were recorded. With the aid of GeoCAT, the extent of occurrence (EOO) and area of occupancy (AOO) were estimated to be 8 km2. We propose the species be assessed as Critically Endangered [CR B1ac(ii,iv)+2ac(ii,iv); C2a(i)b; D] following the IUCN Criteria and Categories.
