Population justification: Prior to taxonomic changes, Partners in Flight estimated the total population to number 5,000,000-50,000,000 individuals (A. Panjabi in litt. 2008).

Trend justification: This species tolerates some forest degradation (del Hoyo et al. 2004) and its population is suspected to be stable.
