Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but this species is described as uncommon. However, since its easily-overlooked song was first recorded in 2004, it has been seen regularly at several different locations within Henri Pittier National Park (Sharpe in litt. 2011). During surveys in suitable habitat, it was found to be common, comprising 2.4-3.5% of the bird community and being recorded in 80-83% of surveys. |
|
Trend justification: Data on population trends are lacking, but the species may be declining, owing to habitat loss in parts of its range. |
