Assessment Notes

Justification

This species is known only from two collections, made in the same location in India. Little is known regarding the habitat preferences of this species, but this species is known to grow on the soil beneath Cedrus deodara. Research into this species' present distribution, threats and habitat preferences is required in order to assess the current population trends of this species, and so until such research is carried out, this species is listed as Data Deficient.
