Justification of Red List category
This species is considered intolerant of habitat loss, requiring large areas of undisturbed forest, in a region which is experiencing high rates of deforestation. High hunting pressure is likely exacerbating the population decline caused by habitat loss. The species is suspected to undergo a large population reduction over the next three generations. Therefore, it is listed as Vulnerable.
