Assessment rationale/justification
Kingdon et al 2013 map this species as extending its range into Uganda in The Mt Elgon NP area, and it is known from other East African massifs. Two recent camera trap photos from MFNP are attributed to this species as they look like nothing else among the small sized carnivores and would represent the first known occurrence in Uganda beyond Mt Elgon. Not enough information to evaluate
