Population justification: The species is considered rare and local, but can be locally common (P. Grilli in litt. 2020). The population is provisionally estimated to number 2,500-9,999 mature individuals, but this requires confirmation. The estimate equates to 3,750-14,999 individuals in total, rounded here to 3,500-15,000 individuals.

Trend justification: The species occurs in a remote area, in which forests remain largely unaffected by logging, fragmentation and human encroachment (Global Forest Watch 2020; P. Grilli in litt. 2020). It has been hypothesised that the rate of population decline is around 2% over three generations (P. Grilli in litt. 2020).
