Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as generally uncommon, although frequent on Negros island and extinct on Cebu (Gibbs et al. 2001).

Trend justification: There are no data on population trends, but the species is suspected to be declining at a moderately rapid rate, owing to hunting and habitat loss.
