Assessment rationale/justification
The distribution of this species in the UAE is uncertain due to potential confusion with other members of the genus and there are few, if any, confirmed records. The species is absent from Jongbloed et al. (2003), however their record of Reseda arabica from the base of Jebel Hafeet may refer to R. muricata (MEW 2010). Mahmoud et al. (2018) found the species on gravel plains in their study along the Hajar Mountains in the UAE, and Sharjah Seedbank & Herbarium hold a specimen from a Wadi-Al Helo garden; it is uncertain if this specimen is native or cultivated. As a result, the species is assessed as Data Deficient at present.
