are strictly confined to the specific clay soil in Sidi Kacem province, which is a very much cultivated area with very little land that has been set aside. This population is very limited, the overall number of individuals counted at three points exceeds 200. The population is not protected; the parcel that housed the majority of individuals belonged to a farmer who did not practice breeding, the adjacent parcels were engaged in breeding and no individuals were found. The farmer said when we were collecting plants that “if I had cattle, you would not have found any individuals”. That is why conservation measures are necessary; around 800 seeds were collected and stored in the INRA gene bank in Settat,

. Since populations are of very small sizes and occur scattered at small areas, we provisionally propose a conservation status of “critically endangered” until additional investigation efforts are completed to circumscribe the distribution of the species.
