Assessment rationale/justification
This species has a very small breeding population in the UAE, which qualifies it for listing as Endangered, and it is considered that the population is increasing. It is considered that there could be a rescue effect from populations outside of the country, and so a regional adjustment has been made. Therefore, the species is listed here as Vulnerable under criterion D1.
