The species is widespread and common in the mountains of the UAE, and is assessed as Least Concern.

This species is known only from a single record from the foothills of the Ru'us al-Jibal. Further research is needed to confirm if this is the only instance of the species within the country, or whether it has a wider distribution, would help to accurately assess the species' extinction risk in the UAE. Therefore, it is currently assessed as Data Deficient.

This is a common and widespread species in the Hajar Mountains, within the eastern UAE, and it is known to occur in at least one protected area. Therefore, it is considered as Least Concern.

This species is widespread throughout the UAE and, within its range, is considered to be locally common and characteristic of its preferred habitat. It is therefore assessed as Least Concern.

This species occurs within a very restricted range in the UAE: the estimated Extent of Occurrence (EOO) is approximately 200 km². The area of occupancy (AOO) is likely to be similarly restricted. In addition, it is only found at higher altitudes within this area and is considered to generally be rare, and subpopulations are small, perhaps with 20-30 individuals in a subpopulation. As such, any potential threats to this species could cause it to become threatened within a short space of time. The species is cautiously assessed as Near Threatened based on a presumed restricted population size and habitat availability in order to highlight threats or declines to this species.

This species is only known from a single locality in the Hajar Mountains within the UAE. However, detailed distribution data is lacking and the species is easily overlooked. As such, it is difficult to accurately assess this species. It is therefore categorised as Data Deficient.

Within the UAE, this species is restricted to Wadi Tarabat in the northern foothills of Jebel Hafeet in Abu Dhabi Emirate. It has an extent of occurrence (EOO) and an area of occupancy (AOO) of less than 8 km². Around 200 individuals are known, however, the population trend is not known, nor whether there is a decline in the number of mature individuals or habitat quality. Jebel Hafeet has been subject to habitat degradation as a result of livestock grazing, however fencing to restrict grazing in Wadi Tarabat was implemented in 2005, and again around 2017, and all known individuals of this species occur within this fenced area. The species is assessed as Endangered (EN D) as a result of its restricted population size (<200 mature individuals). Further research is needed to understand the current situation for this species, and continued conservation action is required. The species potentially qualifies as CR as a result of the restricted EOO and AOO, if a continuing decline is shown. The species does occur as significant wadi and mountain slope populations in adjacent parts of Oman to the east and south. No immigration is known in recent years and therefore no regional adjustment is required.

This species is found widespread in several scattered locations throughout the UAE (Jongbloed et al. 2003, MEW 2010, Brown and Sakkir 2004), although the full distribution is not well known. It occurs in agricultural land and in plantations, and is unlikely to face significant threats, and is considered Least Concern. However, further research is required to confirm the origin of this species in the UAE given the types of habitat that this species occurs in, and the medicinal and other uses of the species, suggesting that it may have been introduced through cultivation. The indigenous distribution of the species is uncertain, and it is possibly native to Southeast Asia and/or Africa.

Within the UAE, the species is moderately widespread along the northern Arabian Gulf and east coasts, inland to Al Ain, the Hajar Mountains, the Ru'us al-Jibal, and on Das Island. The origin of at least some of these records (e.g. Das Island and the mountains) are possibly the result of introduction. Indeed, this species was considered introduced to the UAE (Pagad et al. 2017) and CABI (2018) consider the species to probably be native to the Mediterranean region, although it has been widely introduced globally. However, the majority of the of the UAE native plant working group (June 2019) considered the species to be native, and we include it here as Least Concern.

In the UAE, the species is only known from two records in the Liwa region. There is no further information available, and there is significant taxonomic uncertainty over this and related taxa. The species is assessed as Data Deficient.
