Abstract
Plant conservation planning requires assessing and monitoring the natural vegetation and the flora, particularly rare, endangered, and endemic species. A study aims to explain the status of an Arabian Peninsula endemic plant named Aloe castellorum J.R.I. Wood to aid conservation efforts. Around the world, this plant has only been recorded in Yemen and Saudi Arabia. This species' status and distribution range on the Arabian Peninsula has not been assessed. In order to assess and evaluate A. castellorum according to IUCN categories, the principles and criteria of the IUCN Red List were used and the EOO (Extent of Occurrence) and AOO (Area of Occupancy) of this species were measured using ArcMap 10.8. The geographical range of this endemic plant has been plotted. In addition, the species is described and illustrated.
