Assessment rationale/justification
This species is known to occur in the Ru'us al-Jibal within the UAE. It is not thought to face any widespread threats. As a result, it seems that this species could be classed as Least Concern in accordance with MEW (2010) or Near Threatened, due to its restricted distribution. We consider the species to be Least Concern as, although it has a restricted extent of occurrence, there are no widespread threats. Although primarily peri-agricultural, this is probably a result of it preferring moister, disturbed ground, rather than being introduced.
