Population justification: The global population is suspected to number fewer than 50,000 mature individuals (Partners in Flight 2022), thus it is placed in the band 20,000-49,999 mature individuals here.

Trend justification: The population trend has not been investigated. Tree cover within the range is lost at a rate of up to 8% over ten years (Global Forest Watch 2021, using Hansen et al. [2013] data and methods disclosed therein). The species occurs in a variety of habitats from forest and edges to shrubby secondary growth (Arizmendi et al. 2020) and as such it does not appear to be under imminent risk. Therefore, in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats, the population is assessed as stable.
