Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be common to fairly common throughout its range (del Hoyo et al. 2002).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction. It is extinct in Singapore (del Hoyo et al. 2002).
