Total Population Size Minimum Population Size: Maximum Population Size: Habitat and Ecology This taxon is recorded from deciduous woodland and scrub. System Movement pattern Crop Wild Relative Terrestrial Freshwater Nomadic Congregatory/Dispersive Is the species a wild relative of a crop? Marine Migratory Altitudinally migrant Growth From Definition Growth From Definition Shrub - size unkno Perennial shrub (any size), also termed a Phanerophyte if >1m or a Chamaephyte if <1m Threats Despite being present within areas which are subject to intense grazing by goats, sheep and cattle, this taxon is not regarded as being at risk of population decline. Past Present Future 13 None Conservation Measures A. gilliesii is known to occur within the protected areas network, however seeds have yet to be collected and stored in a seed bank as a method of ex situ conservation.

Possibly Extinct Candidate? Rationale for the Red List Assessment A. gilliesii has a large geographical distribnution and is known to occur within the protected areas network. Despite some threats to the species habitat A. gilliesii is not suspected to be threatened or in decline at present. A rating of Least Concern is given.
