Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be relatively numerous in forest on Halmahera (Madge and Burn 1993). A survey of Aketajawe-Lolobata National Park, Halmahera, gave a potential population estimate of c.44,000 individuals (H. Bashari in lit. 2016), but it is not certain if this is an estimated population for just Halamhera, or if it represents a global population estimate, and so this estimate is not currently used.
Trend justification:
A recent study by Vetter (2009) used remote sensing techniques to track the rate and spatial pattern of forest loss in the North Maluku Endemic Bird Area between 1990 and 2003, and project rates of deforestation over the next three generations for restricted range bird species found in this region. This study estimated the rate of forest loss within the geographic and elevation range of this species to be c.20.3% between 1990 and 2003, and projected the loss of c.37% of forest in its range over the next three generations (estimated to be c.22 years) (Vetter 2009). However, the species shows an apparent tolerance of modified habitats, which would be expected to buffer its population against the loss of primary habitat to some extent. Based on this, the species is suspected to be undergoing a decline of 25-29% over three generations, from 2004 until 2026.
