Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as common, although very scarce in Singapore (del Hoyo et al. 2005).

Trend justification: This species is likely to be negatively influenced by the wholesale clearance of habitat taking place within its range, and is therefore suspected to be in moderately rapid decline overall.
