Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as uncommon in central and eastern Nepal, frequent in Bhutan, uncommon to fairly common in the Himalayas and uncommon in northern Myanmar (del Hoyo et al. 2007).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation.
