Population justification: Partners in Flight estimate the total population to number 500,000-5,000,000 mature individuals (Partners in Flight 2019, see also Panjabi et al. 2019).
Trend justification: Deforestation is reducing forest habitat within the species's range (see Tracewski et al. 2016), and Partners in Flight consider it to have declined moderately since 1970 (Partners in Flight 2019, see also Panjabi et al. 2019).
