Justification of Red List category
This species has a small range with an extent of occurrence of only 8,600 km². Within this, there is limited evidence of habitat degradation assumed precautionarily to causing a continuing decline in the quality and extent of suitable habitat. Nonetheless, much of its habitat remains in very remote and inaccessible areas and, where found, it can occur at relatively high densities. Accordingly, it is assessed as Near Threatened.
