Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as locally common, although generally scarce on Sumatra and very rare on Java (Gibbs et al. 2001).

Trend justification: There are no data on population trends, but this species is suspected to be declining at a moderate rate, owing to habitat degradation.
