Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as generally common throughout its range (Gibbs et al. 2001). This species is considered to have a medium dependency on forest habitat, and tree cover is estimated to have declined by 4.3% within its mapped range over the past three generations (Global Forest Watch 2022, using Hansen et al. [2013] data and methods disclosed therein). However, its presence in vicinity of cultivated land and villages suggests that it is adaptable to human disturbance to habitats (del Hoyo et al. 1997), thererfore the population is suspected to be stable.
