Population justification: Surveys between 2004 and 2008 recorded 77 individuals. An approximate estimate based on these surveys and other records gives a total global population of 250 individuals (S. Valderrama in litt. 2010). However, until this is confirmed to be accurate, the population band of 50-249 individuals seems appropriate. This equates to 33-166 mature individuals, rounded here to 30-200 mature individuals.
Trend justification: The species is suspected to be in decline owing to the spread of agriculture near the type locality, and because of threats to its dry forest habitat, although the likely rate of decline has not been quantified.
