Justification of Red List category
This species has an extremely large range and the population size may be moderately small to large, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion. Despite the fact that the population trend appears to be decreasing, the decline is not believed to be sufficiently rapid to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population trend criterion. For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.
