Population justification: The global population size has not been formally quantified, but the species is described as common and frequently encountered (Davidson et al. 1995, Stones et al. 1997, Rheindt 2010). It is preliminarily estimated to number fewer than 10,000 mature individuals, probably occurring in several sub-populations.

Trend justification: Although this species shows a substantial tolerance of modified habitats, it is inferred to be in decline as a result of on-going and unfavourable land-use change, including the complete destruction of areas of suitable habitat.
