Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be rare or very rare in most localities though occasionally locally common (Lambert and Woodcock 1996).
Trend justification:
The species is tentatively assessed as being in decline due to habitat loss per Tracewski et al. (2016).
