"Known from only one location, where it was last collected more than 70 years ago. Subsequently more than 50% of the habitat has been converted to crop fields and the remainder is severely overgrazed and eroded. B.-E. van Wyk and N.A. Helme have searched the site but was unable to locate any surviving individuals. The species is quite likely extinct."
