Rationale
(Changed due to Same category and criteria)
This is a widespread species with no known major widespread threats and it is unlikely to be declining fast enough to qualify for listing in a threatened category. It is therefore assessed as Least Concern.
Distribution
This species has been recorded from South Africa (Cape) and Namibia to Ethiopia and eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.
The population size is unknown but this species is very widespread in South Africa.
Threats
No information is available on threats to this species.
Uses and trade
This species is not used.
Conservation
No precise information is available on conservation actions but research into population size and range, and monitoring of the population trend would be valuable.
