Caecieleotris morrisi Walsh & Chakrabarty, 2016

Conservazione: Caecieleotris morrisi non inserita dalle organizzazioni internazionali di salvaguardia delle specie a rischio nella lista rossa. Insofar as Caecieleotris morrisi is presently known only from the type series collected over two decades ago and nothing is known regarding distribution or population abundance, it is strictly conjecture to speculate the conservation status of the species. However, there have been extensive hydrologic modifications in the region of the type locality, and the biologically rich State of Oaxaca has undergone extensive land-use changes over the last few decades. These changes include widespread deforestation that is projected to continue into the future, one of many factors known to degrade and threaten subterranean habitats (Walsh & Chakrabarty, 2016:513).
