Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as generally uncommon, although locally frequent in Nepal and rare in parts of India (del Hoyo et al. 2007).
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation.
