Justification of Red List category
This species occurs in a very small range, within which suitable habitat is threatened by logging of forests and degradation of grasslands. Caused by these threats, it is suspected that the population is in slow decline. Nevertheless, as the population cannot be considered severely fragmented or restricted to few locations, it is evaluated as Near Threatened.
