Justification of Red List category
This species is very poorly known, with habitat requirements that remain not well understood. It is suspected to be declining moderately rapidly (10-29% over 12 years) in response to habitat loss and degradation, particularly the widespread clearance of lowland dipterocarp forests in southern Indochina (this species' stronghold). Accordingly it listed as Near Threatened. However its abundance is poorly known and survey work is required to determine levels of occupancy over much of its range.
