Rationale
(Changed due to Same category and criteria)
This is a range-restricted endemic from the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa (EOO 0.1 km<sup>2</sup>). There have been no records since 1991, likely due to under-surveying. The taxon thus qualifies globally under the IUCN criteria as Least Concern and is nationally classified as Extremely Rare.
Distribution
Endemic to the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa, only found near Lady Grey.
