Population justification: The population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as uncommon to locally common (Stotz et al. 1996, Zimmer et al. 2020).

Trend justification: The population trend has not been estimated directly. Forest loss over the past ten years within the range has been very low (potentially <2%; Global Forest Watch 2020). The species is highly forest-dependent, and population declines may be exacerbated by habitat degradation, so that the rate of population decline might exceed the rate of forest loss. Nevertheless, population declines are unlikely to surpass 10% over ten years.
