Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as uncommon or locally common in Ecuador (del Hoyo et al. 2002).

Trend justification: The population has declined markedly in Ecuador due to deforestation. The species is also hunted for food and its bill is used as an ingredient in traditional medicine (del Hoyo et al. 2002).
