Rank Reviewed: N/A
Reason: This species is known from only one occurrence in New Mexico and because there is no information on host plants, nectar plants, or habitat requirements, threats cannot be accurately estimated. Likely this species occurs in more occurrences seeing there has been little survey effort and there are several occurrences in Arizona. However, at this time with just a single occurrence record known the species is currently assessed as S1 in New Mexico. However, a reassesment should be done if more information becomes available.
