Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but this species is described as 'common' (Stotz et al. (1996).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to predation by introduced Indian mongooses, habitat destruction and increasing use of non-shade coffee plantations (del Hoyo et al. 20010.
