Justification of Red List category
With a patchy occurrence within a moderately-sized range, this species has a small population size that is inferred to be declining. Previous very rapid rates of habitat loss have slowed dramatically, but many remaining forest patches are now small and continue to be degraded. The population is considered to now be divided into several subpopulations but, as the largest exceeds 1,000 mature individuals, the species does not meet thresholds for listing as threatened and is assessed as Near Threatened. Securing the future of remaining forest patches and working to restore habitat connectivity will reduce the species' extinction risk.

Population size: 2500-9999 mature individuals
