Artenschutz: Xenotaenia resolanae wurde durch die Internationale Union für die Erhaltung der Natur (IUZN) in der Roten Liste bedrohter Arten bewertet als (VU) potentiell gefährdet (2018). Water pollution from sugar mill discharges, human sewage, and animal wastes had eliminated or reduced several populations by the 1980s, but since then the remaining populations seem to have stabilized (Lyons et al., 2019:144). An additional threat comes from nonnative fish species causing competition for food (Köck, 2019).
