Population justification: The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (under 10,000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be over 10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure).

This population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats.

Trend justification: This population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats.
