Justification of Red List category
This species has a small range, within which it is known from only few locations. Habitat loss is occurring at a significant rate, and hence its range and population are likely to be declining (Collar et al. 1992). The total population is assumed to be small and subpopulations to be very small. These factors result in its classification as Vulnerable.
