Assessment rationale/justification
Although this species is generally described as rare, it appears to have a somewhat widespread distribution within the north and northeast of the UAE, in addition to along the east coast. Therefore, it is currently assessed as Least Concern, pending further detailed distribution data and investigation into potential threats to this species - this may warrant a change in category.
