In the present floristic survey we have noticed more than 400 individuals at two localities in the Amrabad Tiger Reserve and further explorations in the adjacent areas are required. Presently, the area is well protected as it falls under the Amrabad Tiger Reserve. Therefore, there is no immediate threat to this species but the habitat is prone to forest fires and grazing.
