Justification of Red List category
This species qualifies as Critically Endangered because it has undergone an extremely rapid population reduction over the past three generations. However, following intense conservation action, the decline has halted and the population is showing signs of recovery now. Should current trends continue, the species may be eligible for a status change in the near future.
