While all the known populations are within the national park, its habitat is threatened by the increasing intensity and frequency of fires.
Martins and Almeda (2017) assessed the species' conservation status as Critically Endangered (CR): B2ab(iii).
In 2021 Versiane et al. merged Lavoisiera into the genus Microlicia.
The species epithet, minensis, refers to Minas Gerais state.
