We estimated area of occupancy of this species less than 2,000 km 2, where it is restricted 10 separate locality and is suffering from an ongoing range reduction (due to the impact of the invasive species Oncorhynchus mykiss ), a decline in habitat quality, mainly due to by domestic and agricultural pollution and water extraction, especially during the summer dry period and a decline in extent of occurrence and AOO. Therefore, we classified it as Vulnerable.
