Rationale

This species has been found at only one locality and is known from only two specimens. It is therefore considered Data Deficient.


Distribution

Known only from a single site at Three Rondavels in the Blyde River Nature Reserve, Mpumalanga Province, South Africa (Jacobsen et al. 2014).

Population trend

Trend

The species has been found at only one site, and is considered Data Deficient, so it is not possible to infer any population trends.


Threats

The species has been found at only one site, so the threats are unknown.

Uses and trade

Not known to be traded.

Conservation

 Given Afroedura rondavelica is Data Deficient, information regarding whether this species has a small range, or could be more widespread is the first step of essential information required to complete an assessment of this species status. The type specimen is from a protected area.
