B. miliaris
is a widely distributed and locally relatively abundant species but it has seen significant declines in the Namak and Kavir basins. While there are many threats affecting this species, it is able to inhabit reservoirs and other artificial water bodies which seem to buffer at least some the losses seen in natural rivers and streams. We estimated an EOO of less than
20,000 km
2
and AOO of less than 2,000, and so classified it as Near Threatened B2ab (i,ii,iii).
