This species lives within a relatively wide range. There are only a few  known subpopulations, but due to the hidden life of the species this number is probably underestimated. There is no reason to suppose that the species' area of occupancy, extent of occurrence, number of locations, number of subpopulations or the number of mature individuals are declining or extremely fluctuating. Therefore, it is assessed as Least Concern (LC).

This species has also been assessed at the regional level as:
EU27 regional assessment: Least Concern (LC) at the level of the 27 member states of the European Union.
European regional assessment: Least Concern (LC).
Mediterranean regional assessment: Least Concern (LC).

This species is distributed in southern Italy. There is a remote distribution record in Montenegro, near Herceg-Novi (Boeters et al. 1989). Fauna Europaea also indicates this species from Greece. This record is based on a sample collected by Fauer (Epirus, 30 km North of Filipiada, Louros River valley), which could not be reinforced and thus it is considered doubtful (see notes in Subai (1993)).
The Greek and Montenegrin occurrence was not considered when the extent of occurrence (EOO) was calculated.
There are six known locations, but due to the hidden life of this species, this might underestimate the number of subpopulations. Currently there is no reason to suppose that the area of occupancy (AOO), the extent of occurrence (EOO) or the number of locations are declining or extremely fluctuating.

Due to the hidden life of this species, there are no data on population trend. But there is no reason to suppose that the number of subpopulations or the number of mature individuals are declining or extremely fluctuating.

This species occurs in subterranean part of rocky, mostly limestone, habitats.

This species occurs in the subterranean part of rocky (mostly limestone) habitats. It is a potential threat to this species if the rocks are destroyed by quarrying or from other dangers such as through leaching from waste disposal sites. However the total destruction of the whole habitat is not very likely, therefore this threat is mostly hypothetical.

The geographic range of this species is not exactly known and there is hardly any data on its subpopulations. First of all, research activity should focus on these points.

The species is not protected at national level in the countries where it occurs. Known sites are outside of protected areas.
