Justification
Listed as Vulnerable, in view of its extent of occurrence of less than 20,000 km² with all individuals in fewer than ten locations, and a continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat. It also has experienced a past population decline of at least 30% due to habitat loss and exploitation, and this decline is ongoing.
