Justification of Red List category
This species is has a very small range, within which its habitat is inferred to be declining in quality and extent through clearance for development and agriculture. Over 90% of the population is thought to be restricted to one subpopulation, so the population could be severely reduced by a very small number of development projects. For these reasons, the species is listed as Endangered.
