The forest area remains intact, apart from where it was affected by recent flooding and water surge (19 December 2021). The impact of this natural disaster completely reshaped part of the river area. However, this area is currently recovering. Fortunately, the only known population of

), this species has been assessed as Critically Endangered (CR B2ab (iii); D) due to its small population and threats to its microhabitat. It is currently known from only one locality (the type locality) and is certainly a very rare species since only three individuals have been observed. Although the type locality is in a private forest, it may be exposed to future tourist activities in the Resorts World Genting Awana area. The habitat of the species is located on the original trail leading from the entrance of Clearwater Way to Chin Swee Caves Temple. However, since this is private land, the protection of this area from disturbance remains possible. As such, efforts must be made to locate this species in the surrounding area.
