Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as nowhere common (del Hoyo et al. 2006).
Trend justification: The population is inferred to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation (del Hoyo et al. 2006; Global Forest Watch 2020).
Between 2001-2019, the range experienced forest loss of 20% (Global Forest Watch 2020). This equates to a loss of 12% over the past three generations. Assuming that the population declines at a similar rate, the past rate of decline is placed in the band 1-15% over three generations. Between 2016-2019, the lost 7.8% of forest cover (Global Forest Watch 2020). Projected forward over three generations, this equates to a loss of c.24%. Assuming that the population declines at a similar rate, the suspected future rate of decline is placed in the band 20-29% over three generations.
