Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be generally common (del Hoyo et al. 1997).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in moderately rapid decline overall, owing to unsustainable levels of exploitation and on-going habitat destruction. This suspicion is supported by widespread anecdotal evidence that indicates declines in many parts of its range.
