Taxonomic note
Similar plumage patterns of present species and R. browni suggest they are quite closely related. Original spelling is clearly an error, from internal information; at least two different emendations are equally valid; Temminck himself subsequently emended the species name to “reinwardtii”, but for stability it seems best to follow the equally valid option “reinwardti” already selected by other authors (Dickinson and Remsen 2013). Birds of Buru have been awarded separate subspecies, albida, but doubtfully distinct. Three subspecies currently recognized.

Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as usually rather scarce, although locally common at higher elevations (Gibbs et al. 2001). This species is considered to have a high dependency on forest habitat, and tree cover is estimated to have declined by 3.9% within its mapped range over the past three generations (Global Forest Watch 2022, using Hansen et al. [2013] data and methods disclosed therein). It is therefore tentatively suspected that this rate of cover loss may have led to a decline of between 1-19% in the species' population size over the same time frame, with a best estimate of reduction being less than 5%.
