There are currently 8 known occurrences of Scrophularia lanceolata in British Columbia, 5 of which are considered extant. The range extent is 37,945 square kilometres and the area of occupancy is 20 square kilometres. Potential threats to existing populations include roadside mowing and road/utility line maintenance activities such as herbicide application, but are considered to be low at this time.

The range extent for Scrophularia lanceolata, calculated using a convex hull, is 37,945 square kilometres; from the Skagit Bluffs (historical) to Boundary Lake in the Selkirk Mountains and north to Retallack and Revelstoke.

The area of occupancy, using a 2km x 2km grid cell for extant occurrences, is 20 square kilometres.

Three occurrences have good to excellent viability, but there is not enough information to assess the viability of the others

Detailed counts from the known sites are incomplete, however the Boundary Lake site is indicated to have more than 70 plants and another occurrence in the same vicinity approximately 20.

Potential threats to Scrophularia lanceolata include roadside mowing and herbicide application along utility corridors. Although its persistence in these habitats suggest it may not be heavily impacted by these activities.

Currently there is no data available from which population and habitat trends can be determined.
