Population justification: The global population size is unknown given recent taxonomic splits.
Trend justification: Even though the population trend has not been quantified due to recent taxonomic changes, long-term monitoring data suggests that the population is overall stable or even increasing (Pardieck et al. 2018, Meehan et al. 2020, Partners in Flight 2022).
