(see Assessment details)

Assessment rationale/justification
The Bhutan population is more contiguous, but since it is restricted in distribution and in numbers, the taxon is categorised as Endangered as it faces some threats. The status is retained as such in Bhutan as the population is relatively healthy compared to the neighbouring Indian population.

Assessment rationale/justification
The Bhutan population is very highly restricted and very few in numbers as to be categorised as Critically Endnagered using the global criteria. However, since the adjoining populations in India is fairly contiguous with the Bhutan population, there is a possibility of recolonisation. Further, threats to the taxon in Bhutan is not as high as in India, hence the national category of Critically Endangered is downgraded to Endangered in Bhutan.
