Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as rather uncommon, although common in Somalia (del Hoyo et al. 2006). The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation.
Trend justification: The population is suspected to be in decline owing to ongoing habitat destruction and fragmentation.
