Justification of Red List category
This species is listed as Near Threatened as it is not suspected to be undergoing rapid declines since hunting pressure is no longer thought to represent a significant threat. Nevertheless, its population is moderately small and ongoing declines are still assumed to be taking place owing to the impacts of selective logging and the development of oil-palm plantations in its lowland forest habitat.

Population size: 10000-19999 mature individuals

Population trend: decreasing

Extent of occurrence (breeding/resident): 477,000 km²
