Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be uncommon to locally common (Davison and Fook 1995, Robson 2000).

Trend justification: The population has decreased considerably as a result of ongoing destruction of lowland rainforest (del Hoyo et al. 2003).
