Population justification: This species is thought to have a moderately small population, thus it is placed in the band 10,000-19,999 mature individuals until further research is carried out. This estimate equates to 15,000-29,999 individuals in total, rounded here to 15,000-30,000 individuals.
Trend justification: Forest loss within the species's range has been estimated at c.11-16% over 3 generations (10 years) (Tracewski et al. 2016; Symes et al. 2018; Global Forest Watch 2020). However the species occurs in a range of other habitats and is assumed to be tolerant of logged forests and a degree of habitat degradation. Declines may however be compounded by trapping for the cage-bird trade. Therefore, the decline in population size over this time is suspected to be less than this, and provisionally placed in the range 10-19% over ten years.
