Rationale
(Changed due to Same category and criteria)
This is a widespread species with no known major 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
Tramea basilaris is widespread in the whole of Sub-Saharan Africa, extending to Arabia and the whole Oriental region (Pakistan, India, Malaysia, Japan) thanks to its strong migrating power. Similarly, this species is able to use the trade winds to reach the Caribbean and South Americas, where it was caught in Suriname, Guadeloupe and Martinique (Meurgey and Picard 2011).
