Justification of Red List category
Although this species may have a restricted range, this exceeds threatened thresholds under the range size criterion. The population size is likely to be moderately small but to exceed 10,000 and the largest subpopulation in southern Ecuador and Tumbes/Piura almost certainly considerably exceeds 1,000 mature individuals. Despite the fact that the population trend appears to be decreasing, the rate of reduction appears to be slow to moderate, even allowing for additional decline above recorded rates of apparent habitat loss. For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.
