Population justification: Based on the lack of recent records and restricted known range, within which habitat loss and degradation has been extensive, the population is now precautionarily estimated to lie within the band 1,000-2,499 mature individuals (1,500-3,700 individuals).
Trend justification: The species is suspected to be in rapid decline owing to the on-going loss and degradation of grassland.
