Justification of Red List category
This species has a very large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km² combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). The population trend appears to be stable, and hence the species does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population trend criterion (>30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (<10,000 mature individuals with a continuing decline estimated to be >10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.

Population justification
The population size has not been quantified. Density descriptions range from uncommon to locally common and fairly common (Tyler 2022).

Trend justification
The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats.

It occurs in high-altitude grasslands from central Peru to Bolivia and extreme northern Argentina.

It inhabits high-altitude puna grassland and pastures (Tyler 2022).

The species is currently not considered under threat (see Tyler 2022).
