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 global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be locally fairly common (del Hoyo et al. 1997, Collar et al. 2020).

Trend justification
The population trend has not been investigated. Tree cover within the range is lost at a rate equivalent to 14% over three generations (13.8 years), but this is offset by an equally high rate of tree cover gain (Global Forest Watch 2021, using Hansen et al. [2013] data and methods disclosed therein). The species is therefore tentatively suspected to be stable.

The species occurs in central Chile.

Conservation Actions Proposed
Quantify the population size. Monitor the population trend. Monitor the trend in habitat availability.
