Population justification: The population size is unknown, though national population estimates include: c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.1,000-10,000 individuals on migration China; c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.1,000-10,000 individuals on migration in Korea and c.10,000-100,000 breeding pairs and c.1,000-10,000 individuals on migration in Russia (Brazil 2009).

Trend justification: The population is suspected to be stable in the absence of evidence for any declines or substantial threats.
